What are your objectives?

Rubberized Undercoating is about $5 a can. It makes the fender areas look good and deadens sound.

You can get a clay bar for about $15, Mother's 3phase for under $50.

I'll know tomorrow how much vinyl tubing for the door seals cost, but it should be under $10.

Wheelskin leather steering wheel covers are just under $50.

You could probably do your doors with peel and seal for around $50. Fiberglass or polyfill to fill in some open areas to deaden some more sound should be cheap.

You can get a sheet of 3/4MDF for about $25 to build a sub box with. Carpet, connectors and the subwoofers would add more to the cost.

A can of spray paint to coat the hood pad to keep it in it's current shape for a few more years. I used a whole can of fusion on mine, and then I had a can of Appliance epoxy for my suspension.

You could probably conquer the big three for right around $50. About 30' of 4ga welding wire and 6 ring terminals from your local hardware store. Basically adding the 4ga wire to the existing chassis grounds from the block and battery, and adding a wire to the alt/battery wire.

Clean the contacts on your fuses, mine are 7 years old and they were nasty. I used a wire brush and stroked each one while checking my current draw.

You can build a head light relay harness fairly cheap, 2 or 4 relays and your choice of 14ga or better wire. I only have three colors on hand, I am going to do it when I pick up a couple more colors. Red, Black, Ylw and Grn would do nicely, plus a fuse holder, I am guessing for a 2 relay system I would want about 20' of each wire.

Painting the door handles to match the body.

AVS step guards are pretty cheap. Door Sill Protectors

Stant locking fuel cap, Stant

Goodyear Gator back belt

Piaa wipers, I really like them even though they are about $50 a set.
