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.

probably a new air intake like a k&n or an extended range gas tank wich holds up to 30 gallons of gas instead. or window tint.

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.
