$500 Christmas bonus!

Hey guys, I just got a $500 Christmas bonus from work woo hoo! And just so happens I just bought a new sportsman 500 with no accessories. I already gotta winch and plow coming so what should I spend this on! Brush guards, skid plates, wheels what!

Thanks guys. I told myself I wasn't going to do anything to it. Thats why I bought it with nothing on it. But its now becoming hard to do with cash in hand!

Hand guards and/or electric warmers would be high on my list for plowing chores. A reverse lock out and 3 headlight mod and maybe some bumpers/brushguards.
