HID with projectors headlamp (Xenon)
Thicker, tubeless tires (Barracuda)
Tyre rim (Mag wheels; Pulsar 180cc)
Sporty mirrors
New colour
Can someone please give me an estimate of how much these things will cost me (my budget has also been lowered now to “the lowest possible amount you have to spend to get just the most essential things modified”)? What sort of colour should I go for (like, what quality and all that)? Will I see any performance improvement from these upgrades? What size tires would be most ideal?

k&N R1060: around 1600 which requires jetting the carb
clipons: they start from 300 for really cheap ones which come without the vibration mounts to around 6000 which comes on the P220, for which you need to change the front forks(price included)
rear disk brake: you have 2 options, 1: P220 rear disk kit(comes around 10k) which includes rear alloy+disk+swingarm and without the foot pegs for which you would need to shell out another 2 or 2.5k 2: welding work on the swingarm+new rear alloy with disk mount
HID: around 1800 for chinese ones and around 3.5k for really good ones with 1yr garuntee no idea on projectors.
AFAIK, the P220 bikini faring comes for around 8k in which u get projectors and you can install HIDs but your bike needs to be runing on DC and not AC.
Sporty mirrors: dude, IMHO dont do tat, i've seen some bikes sporting somethin like what you get in the mercedes, trust me it really looks sad...
color: based on your choice anywhere between 4-5k.. btw, black is the cheapest.
tyres: get MRF zappers... best value for money.. get a 120/90... no idea on 18" though.. check out the tyres thread.
dude, invest on performance and not on looks.. believe me it would be real fun when you outrun a P200 or somethin with a classic P150...
