Default Best projects for under $100

What are some useful/impactful/easy projects to do for under 100$? I was hoping to do a couple projects for under $100. So far I've just done LED's in all my lights except for my tail lights and 3rd brake lights. Heard Gotts mod is ok, although from what I read, not a lot of people have really noticed a difference.

Maybe not the most impactful or practical, but cheap and easy, do emblems.. Plasti Ur current ones or put on newer body style ones, I put 09-14 emblems on my '08, was like $60 including paint..

Added a reverse light last night. 40" slim single row bar fits under my tailgate on my bumper.

Backup cam has been my favorite mod so far. Watched a thing on the news where they fit an entire kindergarten class behind the tailgate of a pickup truck, couldn't see a single one of them through the mirrors. Scary. You can certainly spend more than $100 on one of these, but there are cheaper options

Also added a smallish light bar in the front air damn hole. Got it off eBay $65, no problems thus far and that baby is 10 times brighter than my brights.

You can also replace stock speakers. Can get a nice pair for under $100 and just replace the front ones, or get cheaper ones and replace all 4

Why link him to a thread for 09-14 trucks? Not very helpful for a guy with an 04-08.

Because some of those mods can easily apply to our years.
