I think you need to be rocking an SC for free mods - such as the BFI. Don't know of any for the GS.

Not necessarily mods, but maybe some new stuff to play with

well, you could try clearing out the amber lens in your taillights/headlights...

painting your calipers will also give your car a nice accent...(know this ones not 'free,' but compared to the $$$ of other mods, its a nice one to keep you at bay for like 20-30$)

How about removing the resonators from the stock mufflers for a meaner growl. Oh, that won't be free

and then theres the $100 or more to patch those new holes and repaint the trunk looks better with the spoiler on if you have one anyway in my opinion

clear side bumper lights, look really good, easy to put on, and only like $15 bucks off ebay.
changing out some bulbs to hyper white, 194 polarg bulbs are like $10 but look much nicer

Not really free, but about as free as your gonna get for the GS
