~$125 (or lower) - decent torque wrench & 1/2" sockets
~$50 - decent wrench & sockets

I don't know, he probably already has those though. When you say inexpensive, about how much do you mean?

lol, im just playing, if you want inexpensive and he's into exterior looks, bodykits.com has really nice kits for really cheap. Also look into improvmotorsports.com they have quick delivery as well.

if your talking like 500 bucks and below ^^^ get that. If he's into it...if hes not i would check out an intake or ecu chip.

Gosh, if its a hot wheels car, I guarantee he already has it. He has every one known to man in the "Ford Focus" model.

How about $100 towards a new car which isn't a Ford Focus?

See if you can't get a gift certificate for some place where he might find something for his car.
