The money spent on those really does have a good correlation with quality. Especially tint. Not sure if someone else can chime in, but I'd expect a $110 tint job to bubble and turn purple after a few years.

As far as my mods have gone. I really like the clear side markers ($65 groupbuy I think, but they have cheaper ones now and you get free LED bulbs) and my shift knob ($70 groupbuy, both the Anarchy Motive ones are done now though).

I certainly wouldn't risk not having a front license plate if I lived in a state that required one.
I wouldn't go cheap with tint and HIDs as those are things I "use" everyday. Kinda like buying quality shoes, mattresses and office chairs.

Good tint brands would be 3M (I have 3M Crystalline 70), Huper Optik and Suntek.

Good HID brands are Morimoto and Meng's.
