Default Mods for 2005-What to do?

We just purchased a 2005 Silver Camrey LE for our son who is turning 16 in a few months. It was his "female" cousin's car and we would like to make a few modifications (at a reasonable cost) to make it a little more "male teenage cool". We were thinking of new rims and tinting the windows...what other modificationswould you suggestto trick out the car?

Its moderate spending.. im modding two cars at once and its hard to keep them balanced and on the same track.

But for the 2002..

-Lip kit was $900 installed ; i bought the kit from a toyota dealership in texas and painted/installed here in ca.

-Tint is limo- back 5. $150

- Grill was $75; eBAY

- Rims and tires were 600; they're only 17" - and this is all i could afford back in high school. I'll be getting some new shoes soon.

hehehe under 2Gs!

Well if you're planning to lower it; then- i'd suggest do the lowering before the wheels.

Well; for me- the next set i'm getting are 18x8 w/ 215/50/18 tires becuase i don't plan on lowering it.

The kit i have for my 2002 is for a 2004-2006 model years. They have one for 02-03 but i didn't like it.

Try eBay or other forums.

Please....still looking for a lip kit for the 2005, I haven't been able to locate one anywhere on the www...were they make for a 2005 or is the trunk too rounded to fit a lip? My son just got back in town and drove the car for the first time today...he was impressed by the power. He had taken driving lesson in a 4 cylinder Honda and thought all 4's were lacking in power...he hit the gas and jerked me out of my seat.
