Aftermarket car parts

Where is a good place to look for stuff like this? Considering that i will likely order rims/tires, exhaust, headers, etc i know shipping will be alot but i wanna get ideas of price here. I don't think i will be installing them myself, as i dont have the right tools or anything...but my uncle owns half of a custom shop type place--he installs all teh electronic components (audio/video, remote starters) and the other people he owns it with do performance type stuff. Problem is they are 4 hours away in CT. either way im sure itll be cheaper to get the stuff there as the installation charge wont be much, but for some stuff i would guess its cheaper to buy online, have them install it there?

thanks jimmie...ill take a look. Do you think i could install an intake myself? i was thinking of trying to do that and the exhaust myself, dont really know what tools are required. The exhaust, if its just a cat-back one, might be possible, but definetely not replacing the whole system. I dont have any way to raise the car here, but i wouldnt need that for the intake. Also, i was looking at seats, some say they have a "universal" mounting bracket...does this mean it will fit in anyhting pretty much? Or should i look for something suited to fit my car when i get it?
