What's Next

I just put on new tires yesterday and I have about a $200 budget left. What should I do?

Auto-dimming mirror ($118)

XRS Shift Knob ($96)

TRD Quick Shifter ($114)

UR Bars?

What else?

Tinted windows is always my first mod. If you've done that than handling is the first big step for me. You will be amazed at how the addition of bars will transform your Corolla.

+1 for tint. I have 5% in the rear and 35% up front on a white S and it looks great.

Another option (seems you love lighting upgrades) is an upgrade of the rear tails...possibly smoked LED?

Definitely suspension first. You'll notice the biggest difference there.

Auto-dimming mirror isn't really a necessity for me, the TRD quickshifter doesn't apply to the 1.8 models, and for the price of the Xrs knob, you can find a aftermarket one with better quality and more of a performance setup with it, as in weight and shape.

Well, I ordered the shift knob today and save the rest of the money for the bars. I will be ordering the UR Bars (front and rear) in two weeks. As for tint, not really a big fan of window tinting so I will pass on that.
