bluebatmobile.net for moustache overlays, or you can paint them yourself, just don't forget to primer. i think they're like $17 bucks.

and for a small budget those are some wheels that you won't find cheap

Amen to that. So much i want to do, but i don't make nearly enough money to do it, especially not with the tuition raises in cali.

Good luck! I went through so much trying to get mine and that was beginning of summer. I basically called my local dealer and they did a nationwide search to see if any dealers had any leftover in stock. I got one from WA dealer, and 3 from a NJ dealer. lol I would say doing the same thing may be your best bet.

And ya...these are def some of the more expensive rims and may be hard for someone on a college budge. Cost me about $900 total for wheels, tires, and mount/balance. And that was with a good deal on the wheels.

I could wait im not in dire need for wheels right now. The way i think of it is, the longer i have to wait to find the wheels the more money i will have . I dont really consider 900 dollers for a set of wheels when they are of good quality. A badass set of volks will run you at least 2k

Just saying...for someone paying for college you may not have $900 to throw around. But if you do sweet deal!

+1 on going to college, modding and working. i work 60-70 hrs every 2 weeks and i go to school full time, and i pay all my s*** even rent...but my parents call it "helping out" haha its ok though i make enough im not complaining. as far as modding money goes, its called saving!! :mike i got 1g so far need around 2.5 more g's to do all my extra mods at once haha :domo:
but yea keep saving man!!

Yeah, that's literally the cheapest mod you can get, haha. The other overlays and interior LED's are other cheap mods if you know how to wire stuff up. :)

If you have the manual racinglines sts is a must, so much nicer to drive with it, but pair it with a weighted shift knob and the difference is night and day. that was my first mod. and i feel you on going to college and having no $$$. I'm in the same spot lol, but i plan on selling some stuff so ill have some cash to mod with lol. so much i want to do
