Default What would you buy with $200

So I've got $200 burning a hole in my pocket and I haven't bought anything in a while for my xj. What would you buy?
I have 4.5" lift, 33" tires, 4.56 gears, jcr front bumper, HID headlights and bushwhacker flares.
Thanks ahead of time and links always appreciated.

Amazon usually has some LED offroad lights for around the $100- $180 range, nothing fancy or name brand at that price though.

Last thing I bought for $200 was a brand new 136a alternator to replace the junkyard donor

Next thing I will buy in that range will be a new steering box to replace the junkyard donor

Frame stiffeners, rear lunchbox locker, more recovery parts, all good choices

Or for another 50-75 dollars on top of the 200 you could pick up a aussie or spartan locker just a thaught.
