+1 and do the leading edge of the rear wheel flares too.
Mine are a mess at 7,700 miles!

Negotiate hard, it's a buyers market.

After you buy it, make a post about how you expect the value to increase, that will get the forum warmed right up to you!

Turn off the esp switch ( it's in the left center of the dash) have the transmission in S, floor the accelerator, look in rear view mirror, wipe smile off face. Then repeat process for bigger smile.

The Black Series needs to be washed at least every week to get the brake dust deposits off the calipers or you will warp the rotors and possibly damage the wheels.

Find a race track close by and sign up for a multi day racing class and learn to drive that monster!

Then attend every track day you can and wear that car out.

Drive it like you stole it, wipe smile off your face, replace the tires, brakes and repeat........
