Hwy that's pretty cool. You should make frequent trips to the junkyard if there are a lot of cars coming in and out. My friend goes to several junkyards every week and he's found:

Full Racing beat exhaust

HKS Exhaust

2 pairs of 89+ tails

4 Glass sunroofs

A small MOMO 89+ steering wheel

HKS FCD

HKS intake

This was over the course of several months. We always poke fun at him because all of his mods are from the junkyard. But hey, mods are mods.
