You only get one! (Or two)
So after going over the summer budget, looks like I can only do 1 big thing or two smaller things to my car.. (For now)
Question now is, which one? Here are the options:
Rims
OR
Lowered, Exhaust
All of it will be done eventually of course, but...which first for the next say 4-5 months?
Opinions? Suggestions?

I go with a drop first. Rims can always come later if you see something better you like with the time frame.

why not drop and get an ok set of wheels for now instead of exhaust?
Exhaust and decent set of wheels should almost be the same price, unless ur getting cheap exhaust.

yea. drop it first! and save the change for your wheels. used exhausts pop up on the classified section a lot, so just wait for that.

A dropped car on stockers will always, ALWAYS look better than a non-dropped on rims.

I'd go with a drop, exhaust and then rims. Check the classifieds for deals. From time to time you will see items you're looking for pop up.

The crowd has spoken... drop it first
Are you getting springs or coilovers? What exhaust do you have in mind?
