You're off to a good start. First I'd have a moderator change your screen name so you don't make your new car jealous

Then, I'd say if you want lovers the SHR ones are the only way to go (as mentioned). The Roush chin spoiler is by far the cleanest for the 13s. The GT500 spoiler has been done a thousand times, but it does look good. Just make sure you get the gurney flap painted black. I'd vinyl the roof gloss black, get the GT500 spoiler, and have your hood vents and rear diffuser area painted gloss black. Do 35% tint all around, then 70% on windshield, and tint your front sidemarkers. You'd be good to go for a while!

The OEM comes with a flat black plastic gurney flap. You wouldn't have to worry about painting that piece separately or the care involved with the carbon spoiler.

I absolutely agree. SHR louvres are great looking with great visability.

PS. Just got a new tablet and i hate typing on it.

I back of a parking spot every day at work, and probably half the time that I park somewhere else. I also back into the garage in the eveing. Mirrors and the rear window have served me just fine. I wouldn't have bought them myself, but they were on there... with velcro... so if they were an issue I'd take them off.
