Want all the mods but.......

So, far:

Front and rear mud guard
Tint
Sprintbooster
Plastidip-ed headlight and tail light chrom
Headlight clear shield

 

happy with sprint booster??

 

Sprintbooster? Most definitely.....

 

+1 on the sprintbooster. it adds a whole 'nother world to throttle response.

 

My top quick mods, forgive me if my list is repeated

0) tint, oh man this car needs tint...
1) torque arm insert
2) stiffer diverter or BOV spring
3) hot side turbo tube (alta or NM enineering)
4) reusable air filter

appearance wise:
1) larger exhaust tips, stock ones are way too small for the larger vehicle
2) debadge the hatch / Cooper S remove
3) yellow fog light bulbs and led rear license bulbs

Of course there is more to do, but this is my short list to be done within in the next few months.

I will be doing all of these one day, just need the $ and the harder part; wife's permission. Oh well that's one of the perks of owning a business, she won't see the shareholder withdrawal .

 

I've got some 12mm spacers and extended lugs I've been trying to get rid of since we got rid of my wife's CM. $250

 

Totally agree, my biggest mistake was the wheels.. I got the 17's I wish I at least got the 18's.. But 19's even better.

 

Hey, do you have any pics of this?

 

I was just saying this was an option to another post. (why spacers)
I would have gone that route if I didnt get 19's already.

I opted for the factory 17's when ordering because I want to use these w/ the A/S RF's as my winter wheels. The factory wheels only come w/ summer RF's when opting above 17's. They are also crazy expensive. $3-4K+.
You dont get a credit for the 17's. (these are called 'dealer takeoffs', they resell them at a discount)

For ~$2K I got nicer, more unique, non factory wheels & still ahve the stk. 17's.

 

I just left my installer and everything was ordered: H&R Springs and SPC Rear Camber arms. Arrives Monday, installed and aligned Tuesday. We are also adding spacers. But will get the springs on, use the spacers he has in house to find the exact size for the fitment/look I want, then we are going to order/add adapters as they feel adapters minimizes vibration.

 

I do have some pics but they are iPhone pics so there not great.

Nice, IbisS5!

 

Thanks man! I think that the chrome on interior makes it look so much better than stock and even the Factory chrome package.
