Hey there! I drive a 2017 ecoboom with the performance package in manual.
I wanted to get some parts that I could eventually move to my future used s550 GT (my goal in the next 1-2 years).

Here are some parts I want to get and install now and still use for the next s550. Please give me your opinion on these parts or what I should get instead. This is more general since they are mostly all sub-models available.

SR Lowering Springs $180

Switchback Leds $72

Ducktail $450

Front Splitter $428

Why no to the ducktail? Quality not good, bad fitment? Or just not your style? Want to know your feedback :)

This is more about quality.. For those who have good and bad things or personal experience that may push me one way or another... I want those but if someone has anything to say about it I want to hear it!!!

I wouldn't do a spoiler at all because of the holes that will be left behind when you remove it. I really like my bmr sp080 springs by the way! You could not do any of them and be in a gt alittle sooner.

Duck tail will leave holes in the trunk lid if transferring over to the new car is your plan probably not a good idea to drill into your existing car.

Maybe you can get one of those lip spoiler that uses 3M tape.
But really, when you trade your car in in 2 years, the depreciation is so big you don't really care about the mods.
I would just save money and don't do anything if you are gonna trade it in that quickly.
Maybe trade it in now and use the money towards down payment.
