Before thee real modding begins sent car to my mechanic to replace the reae main seal that was leaking value cover gaskets and all the filters. The ac compressor also had a small leak. The car should be perfect now.
considering BBS LMs just cant justify the price based on what i paid for the car. Guess ill stsrt with the resonator and secondary cat delete first.

Putting in a Kenwood Excelon DNX893S with a 5 channel Alpine Amp and Focal 5 1/4 components front and back along with a swallow subwoofer from Focal to hopefully fit and replace the existing one on the rear decklid. I will also add a backup camera and adapter for the steering wheel. It should sound as anything would be better than the stock radio.

Just got the G-paddles and am looking for a shop to do the resonator/2nd cat delete. Wheels are also next just can't find something I like and can't justify BBS LM's.
