Here's mine. I dont have too many plans for it, just to keep it mint and sexy with subtle touches.

Engine
  • HKS Short Ram Intake
  • HKS Hyper Cat Back Exhaust
  • HKS Down Pipe
  • Decat
Exterior
  • Full Aero from factory
  • Nismo rear spoiler (it came like that from Japan, honest!!)
  • PIAA HID Kit
Suspension
  • Tein Flex Coilovers (not lowered, yet)
  • Juran Racing Strut Bar
  • Lower ARB's but not sure what they are
Wheels
  • 17" Prodrive GC-06H Alloys (17x7.5 +34 all around)
ICE
  • Kenwood Double-din Head Unit
  • Alpine Components, Front
  • Infinity Components, Rear
I know its not much but im happy with it. Just take great care of it with regular services and maintenance. Happily does 28-30 mpg consistently with a mixture of motorway and inner city driving (25 mpg all inner city).

The spoiler is coming off and getting replaced with a BMW E36 M-tech rear spoiler on April 9th, like this. Will eventually get the same lights as this too.

And these are already on their way from japan!! Work XD9's in white with blue wheel nuts. Cost me a packet but I think they'll look awesome. Settled with the following sizes :

Front, 17x8.5 +25
Rear, 18x9.0 +30

Very nice. Not sure about the spoiler, but I guess that is why you are changing it.

Yup it is! Would look so sweet at night. I had my spoiler removed yesterday. Looks a million times better. Hopefully the weathers good this weekend so I can get them on. Ill get some pics up tonight with the spoiler off and the new m-tech lip on.
