Clear indicators would be the best mod for that kind of money.

Clear indicators.

However, i agree with MADNC_8, put it aside and save up a few more 50's for an exhaust or extractors.

2nd hand EF cam from wreckers?

cheap pod filter?

larger air intake snorkel?

2nd hand aftermarket thermofan?

Thats all I can think of right now.

Damn, someone's already suggested a tank of fuel.

A few cans of spray paint for things like washer jets and even door handles makes a big difference. The only other thing would be getting random miscellaneous bits from wreckers like trip computers and what not.

The latest $50 on my car has bought an XR6 brake booster which I'm very happy with.

Got to love the barter system! I got a genuine Fairmont front bumper for a slab! It was in perfect condition, even the chrome, and it was even in the right colour for the car!

Take a punt at the races, and invest your winnings in a turbo setup

Honestly there's not much you can do with $50, apart from the things mentioned already. Maybe paying someone to remove your resonator and replace with some straight piping? :P

Maybe playing around with your headlights? (Blacking out parts inside for the XR look?)

Clear side repeaters hasn't been suggested.
Clear fronts is the obvious one.

I would go either of the above mentioned cheap mods or colour code the front bumper. Easy.
