2018 GT350 Mods

[rollingshi59]

I'm getting used to my Gt350 and trying to do some mods. Can anyone recommend mods to begin with other than the catch can?
Thanks!

I'd personally skip the rock blockers and go for rock guards like http://jaegerbrothersauto.com/auto-... Splash Guards, 2 pc set, Front Only_654.html or from zl1addons.

When you have changed the "getting used to" to "have become familiar and understand its idiosyncrasies".........

Catch can on the passenger side is always a good peace of mind thing though.

Below are not the only mods I've done to my car, but these are the only "must have" mods I've found after 10,000 miles:
- Caliperfexion studs (for swapping out brake pads for track days and preventing wear on the threaded aluminum uprights)
- Steeda jacking rails (just because they make jacking the car and putting it on jack stands for basic maintenance SOOOO much easier!)
- Paint protection film on the front bumper and rear impact areas
- Driving gloves to keep the Alcantara steering wheel looking nice
- Track time, track time, and more track time.

^^^ yes! I added the caliper studs and they make brake pad swaps a cake walk.... also have the bmr low profile jacking rails and love them too..

Driving gloves can wear the Alcantara down a lot faster depending on the material.

It can be cleaned and maintained with some elbow grease.

...It can be cleaned and maintained with some elbow grease.

If you want to apply the "elbow grease removes hand grease" solution, what kind of cleaner do you use?

Good point. My driving gloves are the ones below, which have a suede texture. After over 10,000 miles, my wheel looks showroom new. I know my sweaty palms would have otherwise made the wheel look awful by now.

Haha.

Here is what I use. It is specifically for Alcantara. Available on Amazon.

I clean per the instructions found here:

It's not a must mod, but the mgw shifter has made the 2 to 3 shift much more confident , especially on the track where I found the stock shifter loosen up to the point I had to search for third a few times, think it has been my favorite mod, with the auto blip ofcourse
