New TA wing goes on today. Pics

I finally got all my special tools and installed the TA wing today. Using a torch to heat up the attachment bolt from the stock wing was crucial. The thread lock used is incredibly strong. I decided to leave it unpainted for now, but I really think it will look better painted to match the car. I also recently installed my new exhaust tips. They are the porsche OEM ones, got a great deal on a used set.
Sorry for the poor pics, will get some better ones soon.
So, now I need some advice on what to do next. I want the car to look mostly stock but just a little more aggressive I also want to continue to increase performance but am a little limited on my upgrade budget.
Any ideas for $500 or under?

Looking good!!! I think unpaint CF looks better than body color.

If you want just a little more aggressive look. Aero front lip and CF mirrors covers will be nice. The aero lip just ab it bigger than factory lip and it match the flow with TA rear spoiler perfectly.

Looks great. Glad you finally got that piece out.
Not too sure what you can get for $500 performance mod-wise. But you could get your rear bumperettes painted to match the car. Also some DV's are not too expensive.
