For a more noticeable mod I would change all your interior lights, tags lights and front turn signals into LED'S.

Some mods for $100.00 or less

1) Tint the front windows
2) HID kit
3) TRD/K&N air filter
4) Razo shift knob
5) NST shifter bushings (if you have a 5-speed)
6) Redline MT-90 manual tranny fluid (highly recommend if you have a 5-speed)

Those are just a few I could think of at the moment

spray paint the hub caps

(ordering the mudflaps and led tail lights are over 100.00 but not to expensive to consider)

I've got the OBX Sports pedals, 35% tint, SW Region bumper protector (not that filmsy vinyl sticker thing), and the cargo net. I like all four very well, and each indiviually were under $100. The cargo net with install was like $33 (I ordered it from the parts department and then had someone install it); the tint was $70, the bumper protector was $50 on eBay and I put it on myself, and the sports pedals were $44. (They're hard to get on, I'll warn you! I bruised my fingers up pretty good getting them into place and had to use a screw driver to help guide the rubber in hard to reach areas. They look good though!)

Nice! I knew I forgot some things, I have done 43 and 45 also. Got the blue tint covers from local store $7 each. Looks good on NBM.
