Default First mod for my '99 Tib. FX

I have $120 now, and could round up ~$200.. What should my first mod be?
These are what I have in mind:
Strut Bars... this is what I think I'll get.
AEM CAI
Sharkracing 2 1/2" lowering springs (I would need to get shocks though with this drop)
Window Tint ... kinda a mod
?

Thanks, sorry for such an open-ended question I just want advice from people who have modded before.

Do you want alittle more show, or a little more go?

AEM will give you a little of both. Gives you more HP (8.1hp my car @ AEM dyno / 12hp rob's dyno) and it sounds kick ass.

Lowering Springs makes the car look better and handle better.

Strut Bars... dun do much...

Window Tint... for me, it was my first mod.

Well, I have them all, and this was my personal mod order that I did:

1. Tint
2. Strut Bars (cause I came across them for cheap!)
3. B&M Short Shifter
4. Clear Corners and SR Rear Window Visor
5. AEM CAI (Free from AEM.. *grin*)
6. Lowering Springs AND Rims (did them both at the same time)
7. Body Kit


Now it's time for more go... *grin*

With a black tib make sure you've got tinted windows. It makes the car look SOOOOO much better in my opinion.

AEM CAI is a great start towards engine improvements. IMO its the ultimate first mod. But it all depends on your style and what YOU want. Don't do something because you're told. Do it for you, it's your wheels!8D
