Also you could change those ugly amber reflectors on the bottom front bumper to smoke or clear depending upon the color of your car ecs has ones for 50 plus a pciture guide on how to get to the clasps and its legal cause its not lit, I personaly just dislike the amber I think it messes the over all look of cars
you could also clear the blinkers and then put in amber LED so its still legal but looks smooth when your not signaling and if your gonna do engine you can do KN for the better sound (no performance boost though) further than that chip it, biggest difference for the price

yup... there are plenty of aesthetic things to the car you car do, replace the fog lights and license plate lights and all the ones inside to a much brighter and whiter LED lights which look much better, and you can find those lights for pretty cheap i believe.

What do you know, I can post again!
Anyway, finished the first round of mods: K&N air filter, Podi boost gauge, smartTOP controller (fricking sweet!). It was fun and I learned a lot.
Next I think I'm gonna do clear corner, xenon match fogs, and tint the tails.
I still haven't decided whether to chip, since I have CVT. I had decided not to, but then it seems all the CVT's on audizine.com have chipped, so I'm thinking about it again.

There are some who would say I mod rather quickly.... (harryd14). I have done most of what everyone has suggested you do. I would say that doing it yourself is a lot of fun. So far I have done:
APR 93 Octane Program
smoked sides
Podi
19"rims/wheels
tints
K&N (replaced) anyone want to buy it? less than a month old!
Carbonio
hard wired radar & GPS
Remote Start w/ turbo timer
APR 93 program
RS4 Carbon Fiber deck lip

haha... of course you gotta call me out huh? im just saying that because im jealous of you being able to do all of this while i am not so high on the cash flow!!! what is the smartTOP controller you mentioned before, and what does it do?
i really want to tint my rear lights and also replace the reflectors, but can't find my self to pay $50 for them. eMacPaul, do you know how you are going to tint the tail lights? are your going to use some of the spray type of tint or actual tinting film.
I was also thinking about to avoid having to buy new side reflectors do you think it would look good if i just used that tinting spray on them? what do you guys think

The smartTOP controller is for the convertible roof... lets me operate it with the remote, and while driving! A most excellent addition for any cabriolet owner.
As for the tinting, I was thinking about spraying them myself, but now I think I'm just gonna get a film one. It's a lot easier and a lot less permanent if for some reason I ever want to get rid of it.
