91 escort gt

Hello, So i just turned 18, and im finally able to buy things for my new car i just got:] I am wondering if anyone here knows of any performance or visual parts that are nice for my car, the most i would be willing to spend on a part is $700. Thank you all.

Considering that it is an Escort, it would be unwise to spend much at all trying to turn it into a performance vehicle... it just isn't going to happen. There are no specific parts you should be looking for, it depends more on what your long term goal is.
Don't expect any drastic changes from what you have though... a few HP here and there might be cool, but it is still a small engine designed for fuel efficiency, not power.

Performance isnt really as important to me, im kind of just looking for some nice things to soupe it up a bit such as spoilers, side skirts, hoods, and things like that. thanks for your help.

It should already have spoilers and side skirts on it.

You dont need much for the Escort GT, it already comes with nice side kits. You may want to get some clear headlights and side marker lights/performance muffler/air filter on ebay. Throwing in some rims wouldnt hurt either. Just remember its a pretty old car so its kinda not worth spending alot of money over it.

Oh yes lol. i have just seen a few nice escorts and i thought it would be nice. Thanks for the tips i may certainly do that. btw how does this look to you guys? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Weapon-R-secret-air-intake-91-96-ford-escort-1-8L-GT_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ38634QQihZ020QQitemZ 300235414206QQrdZ1QQsspagenameZWD1V

I think the best thing about that gizmo would be if it lit up blue under the hood. Performance-wise I doubt it will do anything at all.
If I wanted to sink some money into my Escorts, a thumping sound system would be the first thing I would aim at. Next one would be some pretty wheels.
