Take the 4K, put it on the hood of your Celi & trade it for a 350Z. ![thumbsup thumbsup](https://celicahobby.com/forums/images/graemlins/celica/thumbsup.gif)

350z's have a great looking exterior...but they went way generic on the interior... ![puke puke](https://celicahobby.com/forums/images/graemlins/celica/puke.gif)

4K is enough for paint job and rims. Try to see what kind of paint you can afford. Get that glossy candy apple red, that is super nice.

try to keep the car clean as possible. go kaminari or get a lip kit like vizage. After that get paint if you want custom paint, then save some more for rims.

6500?! ive never heard of a paint job that pricey unless your flying somebody in to do custom spray graphics or some shit like that. if i were you, i would browse around a bit and pick out your favorite body kit, once you get it and have it installed, then get a paint job, and use whatever is left over + maybe a little out of pocket and get some nice rims to accent it. or you could do the awesome thing, and get it painted and buy someones stock stuff and pocket the rest. ![thumbsup thumbsup](https://celicahobby.com/forums/images/graemlins/celica/thumbsup.gif)

Find a good TRD kit (if you didn't already have one to begin with). I think that's a great kit and I will definitely get one if I do get a Celica. By the way, are the ones on eBay [ cgi.ebay.com] for real or are they knock-offs? They're about $500 after cost,insurance,&shipping (doesn't include the spoiler, but I think the kit looks pretty sleek w/ the stock spoiler). ![thumbsup thumbsup](https://celicahobby.com/forums/images/graemlins/celica/thumbsup.gif)
