make it a convertible. joking you can clean your engine bay. just remove a few pipes and the odd bottle and get scrubbing.
also fully valet your interior. eg remove seats and give em a good scrubbing.
tbh you cant really do much mechanically unless you are skilled.

Something i've been meaning to try for ages is create a custom grille. admittedly I've done no research yet but was planning on buying some meshing and maybe adding a pipe outlet for an induction kit... Just an idea.

Dunno about that one mate, wont make your car any faster, might even make it slower - don't want water vapour being inducted do you?
