    facelift ideas?

    ok i have a 87 325i.automatic.
    i don't have tons of money and have been doing little things to improve the way it looks;
    replaced air dam, tinted headlights, blacked out grill, exhaust tips, and blacked out side markers.
    i plan on doing the shadow lining this week.
    any ideas on small things that can make a big difference?
    i am saving to lower the car and do some more performance mods, but right now i want to get it looking sexy!

    thanks

        already taken care of.
        first things i did after i bought her;
        oil change, spark plugs, ignition cap, ignition rotor, coil, checked fluids, seafoamed the engine through vac line.
        the car is running like a champ.

        so any ideas for asthetics?low cost is good.

              bumper tuck, fix tears in interior, performance upgrades (if it goes fast enough it won't need to look good).

                    How stupid are you? You have to use electrical tape for the timing belt because duct tape is too wide. The stretchiness of the electrical tape will make your car run smoother, too.
