Welcome to the forum!! Just a side note we're pretty carefull about language... if you search body kits on google you'll find a TON of stuff... as far as engine goes start with intake/exhaust is usually the most common... do you want to turbo or build a N/A engine?

as for body kits i would go with www.bodykits.com www.wingswest.com www.extremedimensions.com I try to refrain from buying anything on ebay, but thats just me. i would start by doing catback exhaust, headers, and a cold air intake of some sort. but then you need to decide what you want application you want from this, daily driver, show, race. if you want a daily driver i would not put a body kit on unless you want to see it get ruined, esp if you live somewhere up north where the roads arent that great and it snows. if you are going for show then by all means put a body kit on. I looked into body kits, and they just arent worth it, you think oh its only like 600-1000, but getting it painted costs so much. i would say if you do anything just get a lip kit, but thats just me. another first i would do is put some rims on it, prob 17s.

Your car is a clean slate and looks totally unmolested.
First, make a plan of what is most important to you: looks, performance, etc.
I want my car to be fast before it is pretty, my opinion though: intake, headers, exhaust, plugs, wires, pulleys, turbo(?), complete engine rebuild(?) etc.
Looks: wheels add a lot and so does tint. Do you like the color of your car? It looks mint so wax/polish it, my opinion. I agree with live2rice about the lip kit but to each his own.
Budgets suck so when you have to pick and choose, pick what is most important to you.

turbo is obviously turbo, uses a turbo charger to force air into the engine. n/a stands for naturally aspirated, meaning not turbo or super charged. n/a is what your engine is now.

keep in mind that turbos will cost you a arm and a leg, i would swap in a H22 before i put a turbo on your f22
