Ok So my birthday is rollin around again and I wanna get some stuff for the tib. Last year I got my 20% tint and this year I have put together a lil list of things. I just want some opinions or maybe different ideas.

I have about $300 to spend just from my mom and this is my list:

-OBX Pulley(ebay)
-1.8L ECU(car-parts.com)
-Black Tails(ebay)
-Strut Bar(Kspec)

A friend said I should just save it toward some lowering springs and new struts.

Best combo?
-Eibach/GR2's-little rough
-Intrax/GR2's-Might be too low, but I do like how it looks though
-Cant afford Eibach dampners

What would you guys do?

I think tinted or shaded tail lights look much better than the ricer ones on eBay, and kspec sells some pretty nice covers I hear.
A strut bar over eBay is much cheaper and only a little less quality, so I wouldn't recommend the kspec one, although it might be a little stronger.
Good choice on the pulley!
NGK or PRD plugs and wires if you don't already have them.
Samco radiator hoses if you want.
K&N oil filter.
That's all i can think of for now.
Or you could do HID's if you want to blow almost the whole 300 in one whack...

Well I have AEM and NGK Plugs and wires. I heard the adjustable strut bars arent as good.

I think I have decided on the H&R Touring Cup Kit. I found it for a really good deal on Tire Rack. I dont want the Cup Kit because its too low and for $485 I think its a pretty good deal. It lowers it 1.6"/1.5" which I think is perfect and probably a little more when they settle. What do yall think? I know it needs to be lowered, as you all have suggested.
