Spend your money on quality parts.

Get wheels with a good offset.

Don't put on ugly body kits.

Don't paint your car a rediculous color unless you've got the power to back it up.

No ricer wings.

You get the idea. Pretty much, less is more. You're better off LEAVING THE CAR ALONE than buying cheap junk parts, or just adding stuff just to add stuff. Most people go wrong there and end up with an ugly car. Save your money and buy SOME quality parts instead of a plethora of junk ebay stuff.

Since you bought a 20 yr old car with probably over 100,000 on it, its not a bad idea to do maintence and clean it up. Change plugs, oils, and that sort of stuff and just get to learn the car.
