Default Help with aftermarket parts

I'm new here and would like some input from everyone.
I have an '03 Civic LX 4 door, automatic. The main things I want to do are:
1. Install a cold air intake
2. Cat back exhaust
3. Performance chip/ programmer
4. Ground effects

What I would like to know is, What brands do you reccommend? What should I expect to pay for the parts? Where is the best place to find these parts? And What else do you recommend I do to my car?
I should let you know, i dont want to go all out with it. I dont want a crazy body kit or complete engine swap.

Unfortunatly buying a new car isn't going to happen anytime soon. That's why I'm looking for parts (and why I don't want to do too much. It will be sold.). I have to work with what I have at the moment.

you're an idiot

to the original poster

get a AEM intake that is a good brand
people have mixed feeling about exhausts just look in that section and you will find something
the performance chip things on ebay do nothing and can fry your motor
ground effects get whatever you want I guess

Dude, not everybody's a tuner-head or a kid with a new toy. Nothing wrong with making your car a little nicer though.
