Put in some fog lights behind the grill, that's my next mod. Just look around on here a lot of guys with a lot of mods.

Efan and throttle body both make nice gains and are fairly cheap.

ha... they arent fog lights. they're Hella 500 either driving lights or spot lights (depending on what you want). they're so bright they put the high beams to shame. A pair is usually less than $75 for lights, wiring, switch, etc. REAL easy to mount to -- they just mount to the cross brace thats already there

LOVE the e-fan... def the best mpg mod i've done, and adds a few ponies too! cant speak for the TB cause i dont have an aftermarket, but its lower down on the list of "popular mods in order"

There is a write up about it in the FAQ section. You can read it then judge for yourself if it is a simple project.
