+1 on the Sprintbooster.

Also, get the windows tinted, and get it lowered. With the rest of the money, open an online gambling account, bet it all on one spin of roulette. Take your winnings, get some hookers for you and your friends and have a happy New Year.

I was going to suggest that he put the $1700 into a growth-oriented mutual fund instead of into a depreciating asset like a car, but on second thought, I like your suggestions more.

One word adjustability. The Rockford piece offers much more than the cleensweep. The only downside of the 3sixty is you must have a bluetooth enabled palm to make adjustments.

The Renntech lowering module allows the driver to adjust height settings compare to STAR. STAR also lowers up to 1" while Renntech ELM lowers to 2 inches with 7 adjustable heights (1/4 inch to 2 inch).
