Default What should i do?

I just dont know what i want to do next so i thought i would ask all of you to see what i should do. given some of these would take longer to save for than others. they are in the order that i was thinking about doing them but not sure.

also i am not sure if i will be able to lower it with my rims on.

The hood would be nice, but if you can't get the power to the ground you might as well ride a scooter. So the KYB shocks would be the better choice here.

But............... I voted for the race inspired spoiler. I think they just add to the looks of a Monte.

If the hood is 100% functional, its a no-brainer.

I had to vote for the HP tuner. I mean really, if you've already got an intake and exhaust , then nothing gets you happier about your car than more pedal. I've done several mods to all of my cars, and nothing got me grinning better than the mods that helped with HP. Sure the lights might look cool, and the hood might or might not add a few hp when you're going fast, but nothing compares to the satisfaction of feeling the boost in power every time you hit the gas.

Well, it is illegal in California to have a functional Ram Air hood that is not factory installed like the 1970 Chevelle SS hood.

So it must have some power gains and thus increased emissions. I don't know the speed, but I've always learned that any cool air is good air.
