I love the red interior!!!! Pure sex.

1st mods: window tint and clear side markers!!! Maybe a clear bra if it doesn't have one.

Drive it stock for a little while and that way you will have better ideas for future mods (i.e. suspension, tuning, exhaust, ect).

Is the int. red or terracotta (kind of hard to tell by the pics...or I am going color blind!)? Mine was terracotta but had the upper dash portion black. Throwing down some black mats helps break it up a bit. Nice looking car...congrats!

clear corners, then a driving course/HPDE event. Car is going to be much more of a devil to handle than your ISF
