It depends. You could do some small things. You could get an Injen intake and Stillens' exhaust for that price. Or you could go all out on one thing. Cheap rims, but i doubt you find many sets of 18's with rubber for $900. You could get Stillens' front fascia painted and installed for around $900.

in the same boat, just got mine and wonderin what the first purchase will be. If i where you, id go for the intake and exhaust. Think I'd rather have the extra power first! Car looks great and with time want to add some looks to the outside, been listen to some sound clips on utube and can't deside what exhust...... Nismo, tanabe, stillen,or borla? Any thoughts?

clear bra + $400 of other stuff. Your paint will love you for it. Seriously, when you start getting rock chips, you'll regret not having it sooner.

Too bad you're not from around here. There's this amazing fellow who does clear bras and tint who's an active poster on s2ki and i-club. He did my bumper, a large chunk of my hood, my mirrors, the front of my fenders, and my mirrors for $500.
