cheap asthetic mods?
I'm getting bored with my cars appearance. Its a blue 02 wagon. I already put a good set of gold 5zigen rims on it. An sti hood scoop (goes with the intercooler). Its lowered and I have black rally armor flaps. Also aftermarket chrome mesh grill. I'm not sure what I want. Nothing too flashy but something pleasing visually. Also I'm not looking to spend a lot because u just upgraded to a stage 2+ clutch.

3) get rid of the chrome mesh grill and get a sti grill
4) window visors

Ditch the chrome grille ASAP. Those are extremely tacky.
The garage door liner lip ONLY looks good when it's paired with a Prodrive lip. Together and installed with meticulous care it look great, but without the Prodrive lip it looks awful. Unfortunately this is a wagon, and you'd need sedan fenders and front bumper to make it work.
Clear corners are cheap.
When you're looking at inexpensive thing like this you need to go in with the mindset that tossing a bunch of cheap mods on the car only makes it look worse. When you're on a budget, subtleness is the key to make it work.
