Are you more interested in appearance or something you can feel? Are you going to be taking the car to a road coarse or drag strip?

no courses or strip by any means yet, ive been leaning towards the carbon fiber add ons for sure just wanted some opinions.....i guess i kinda answered my own question there but im on the fence about closing that wheel gap up and sticking the wheels out a bit more to get it sitting where i want i feel like an indecisive woman here lol

Well some wheel spacers will bring the wheels out some to help flush them up with the fenders, I'm just not a huge fan of wheel spacers. Sounds like you already made up your mind though. Get the carbon bits and be satisfied with the car looks for a while longer until you possibly find some new wheels or suspension setup you want to swap in.

HAHA well yeah i guess i just did then. Thanks! I think thats probably the better route to go to as im not doing road courses or the strip anyways the stock suspension will do just fine for what i need.

Built 2008 G55 & one big 80 Series LandCruiser !
Carbon fiber adds at least another 40hp....... now if only they had CF intake spacers !!

Mode's stuff is nice but a real premium price - RW and JBSpeed and a few other vendors have stuff that is pretty solid quality....happy enough with it for my 507, and saved enough for the tune.

Cheers

Lower the Car, it will give you a whole new (sleek) look.

You will also benefit from a bit better handling. Carbon bits are cool as well.

My diffuser and spoiler arrived from Mode Carbon yesterday. I thought it was an empty box bc it was so light. I love the look of the Luffstrom

Personally I would get a tune first , it dramatically changed the shift speeds
