For me, suspension upgrades were a must before more power. BMR + Steeda rear shock mounts. Completely different car. Easy install, worth every penny.

I’m still waiting on my car but mods, of mods have started ... Do they count ?

1st (colour coding) :

2nd (additional bracing) :

3rd (more colour coding) :

Other than those it’s cosmetic exterior stuff, getting things ready for paint (mirror caps, roush ducktail, US spec decklid etc).

only ~500 miles on my new 19, had it for 2 weeks now.

1) tint
2) rokblokz front and back
3) black lugs to match pp1 rims
4) roush qtr panel side scoops (im usually not that guy who sticks fake vents on their car, but they look so damn nice)
5) ceramic coat (body, wheels, ext trim, and glass)

to come
6) diode dynamics xp80 reverse light
7) diode dynamics stage 2 interior LED conversion

after that
maybe some spacers to push the stock pp1 wheels out just little bit further

Keeps PCV blowback oil from gumming up the works.

Awesome feedback guys! Keep it coming!

Removed the stupid sound tube on the first weekend after purchase, then next weekend added the Steeda strut tower brace (non-PP).

Of the cars that were ever autocrossed or driven at HPDE . . . think 4 out of 8 new cars here . . .
Wider tires on wider wheels
Shocks/struts (sometimes alone, sometimes with springs and/or sta-bars)
Sometimes springs got done separately at a later date

Past those, there hasn't been very much consistency.
