under $100 mod suggestions?

Hey everyone, I was wondering since christmas was coming and my brother wanted to get me something for christmas, what would be good inexpensive things to ask for new or used from people in the suby community. Just to narrow it down:
have a suitable rear sway
don't want to be lowered
don't want endlinks
don't need sidemarkers
don't want emblems
have strut bars, getting intercooler hoses from zoeb
Any suggestions other than that long list would be appreciated. FYI I have an 02 wrx wagon in mbp. thanks.

I'd say scrap the SS brake line thing. Its a pointless mod (minus the part where you cant rupture a brake line).

I second the brake pads. The improvement of stopping power is very useful. Especially lately when it randomly rains because a lot of people on the local highways and roads just don't know how to drive in that kind of weather.

I wouldn't do the brake pads or SS lines unless you did them both at the same time, and combined them with a set of slotted rotors (racing brakes), and full brake flush with good fluid (Motul).

They really should all go together, IMHO

yea I agree on the pad, line, and fluid thing, with possibley the cusco bracket from imprezer. Not sure i need rotors. I think I'm fine with headlight bulbs, most are just a color change rather than a brightness change. right now I'm thinking mcguards, maybe lamin-x for the fogs, a frame brace, or rubber floormats. any other suggestions?
