What should I do..insurance money

Okay well I got word that a check is headed my way to fix my car. I've been pricing and after everything is said and done I will be getting around 1500 bucks to put in my pocket to do whatever I chose to do. My question is what would you use car wise for 1500 bucks

I've considered doing the normal mods most people get like Staged, Cooling, exhaust etc but I've actually really been wanting coilovers because i love the look better than I like the performance. If I do get coilovers they will be stance coilovers or k-sports.

I've also have a highrise spoiler and a set of painted black wheels with new tires

What that I like the look better than performance? Well thats not really me answering myself just more to what Im leaning towards. Im looking for other opinions on what everyone else would do with it.

I'd save it or pay off some debt, that's my opinion

lol read the thread title. Insurance money that is left over. And I doubt im going to save it because I never have money to do the things I want to do with. All my income tax money went towards catching everything up so i want to have something to myself :P


@383...ouch man that's hurts me deep in my soul. How dare you bring up the past you bastard lol. But being serious... Next time it floods my car isn't moving anywhere but to higher ground if it can. I would rather it damage my interior than my motor again.

Ok, well the sooner you pay it off, the more you save in the long run. Interest adds up fast.

Buy some stance coilovers and an OTTP Street rear sway bar if you want to blow it all at once.
