You got a steal. Lots of people used plastidip on the grille, head lights, rear emblem, and wheels; delete the badges, wrap the interior trimming, window tints. Browse through the forum and you'll find tons of other ideas.

I suggest you go through your service manual to see what has been done & plan what should be done in the future.

It is good to be up to speed with what the dealer/ service mechanic need to do ie the important servicing of your auto transmission at 39,000 miles including the drain of your torque converter.

You definitely got a great deal, congrats!
First things first, get rid of those hideous orange side marker lense's, cleans up the car a ton. If your looking to mod, spend some time checking out the picture thread, you'll find anything and everything made for your car with reviews to go with em.

Check out www.jbspeed.com, they have some nice carbon fiber accessories if you're looking for some cosmetic changes.
