Sooo I really wasn't expecting him to get me anything just because we hadn't discussed anything about it, well he just asked me if I want something for me or for my car, which is pretty much like asking me if I want to breath or blink lol. Anyways, any good tips on what to get guys? Something not to expensive because i'm low on cash from rent and car payment. I was already thinking about getting him some decals he wants and he bought himself a trunk lip a couple days ago :unamused:

Guessing he drives a subie too?

Some nice detailing products if he's into washing his own car.

He wants chargespeed replica side skirts lol. That might be a little too expensive right now.

So do I, but those just started showing up on the market. I would wait until a few people have them to see how well the fit. IMO

For christmas I went on skinit.com and had a vinyl made for my bfs laptop featuring his car. Now he can take his baby where ever he goes! :) He loved it.

these won't arrive in time but would be a really nice present - italian leather or alcantara shift and ebrake boots from jpm coachworks.

you can customize the fabric, stitching, color - you name it.

jdm offers this for a variety of car makes in case your bf drives something else.

I look cooking for a gift. I find that food is a good way to a man's heart. :)

What about a coupon book? You could give a massage, a car wash and other fun free/inexpensive things.

I buy my bf car parts because he has everything else. Last Christmas I bought him his Tein Flex's for his Legacy and now I'm going to get him his EDFC. Oh and my car gets her swaybars, endlinks, strut tower brace and maybe her downpipe and Greddy exhaust for Valentine's day :D

Has he hinted or talked about anything he likes/enjoys and hasn't bought or will not buy for himself?

That actually looks like how he wants the inside of his suby too look like, the red would match the outside lol.

my husband has a desk job, so I had a picture of his suby put on a clock and placed on his desk. so when he is on the phones watching the clock it reminds him why he is there putting up with the BS. I also got him a collage coffee mug so while he is drinking his coffee trying to stay awake taking calls he sees his baby and wakes up... both purchased from Clarkcolor.com ($16.99)
