get new wheels and tires because the stock ones suXX0rs.

then start working on either the drivetrain or suspension.

you can lower it with new springs ($150-$300), springs and new struts ($400 - $600) or complete coilovers ($500 and up).

or you can start modding the drivetrain by getting new intake ($50 and up), headers ($expensive) and exhaust (equally expensive).

so welcome to the wonderful world of modding. please leave your wallet at the door...
