Just my opinion, but I don't think you're gonna buy or build much for 3K, unless you use the 3K as an initial investment and add "X" dollars a month or week to the project as time goes on.

When it came to the front coilovers, I decided to use Alden Americans ($500 for the pair), so it took me 10 weeks to save the money to buy them. I was on that project for 8 years and had it about 80% completed before some fellow from Camp Verde Arizona made me a deal to trade out of it. That's just how it works.PLANET EARTH, INSANE ASYLUM FOR THE UNIVERSE.
