What are they? Brakes, exhaust (non buzzy kind)? Induction, tuning?

Some are subtle, some are cosmetic, 5" outlets on an exhaust i would venture to say are NOT tasteful, along with an obnoxious sound.

Tasteful varies depending on who you ask really.

Tasteful: Window tint, a slight drop to get rid of some wheel gap, wheels with good fitment, and keep good care of your paint.
Not tasteful: Obnoxious exhaust, excessive camber / stance, giant wings, useless cosmetics such as fake hood scoops and vents, stickers, rust

Tasteful mods to me are rebuild/strengthen suspension, fresh brake fluid, stainless steel brake lines, seat swaps..

Do stainless steel b lines really improve? Also, fluid? I have been thinking about better pads.

Just run a synthetic blend. Also I think the cai needs to have the step down portion for the maf. Some of the cheaper ones don't have it and I think it will cause a cel. At 175k your safe with a cai and a cat back exhaust. Stainless lines do improve braking a bit sometimes noticeable sometimes not. Just get some good pads and rotors and you will be fine. Do some YouTube searches for different exhaust options for a sound you will like. Do you have a base or an si?

Rattle can paint jobs, gaudy bookshelf rear wings, ridiculous oil pan scraping stance, and accented interior pieces are examples of mods that are NOT tasteful.

You can sell here in the classified section once you meet the requirements. 30 days and 30 posts. Until then, Craigslist and local automotive forums are your best bet.

Sucks about the car, hope you're alright though.
