$200.00 should be enough to get you into the next Driver's Education event of your local PCA chapter. That's a lot of fun and informative too and will show you a whole new side of what your car can do if you haven't tracked it yet. It could be the best "non-mod" that you ever make.

How about a complete assortment of cleaning and detailing hardware (PC Polisher, Pads, Micro fiber towels etc), and software (car wash soap, clay, polish, wax etc).

Some cordouba (sp) with coconut oil type of wax. Those are pricey, but nothing like protecting your paint and wow-ing those passerby.
I use the zymol Ital atm...I like it, but think there're better ones out there.

I just bought car cleaner/sealant from Zaino. I would get a claybar, z7 wash, z2, zfx, z6 and z8. I used the z2, z6 and z8 and was very pleased.

That's about what painted crest center caps for your wheels go for.
