New 997 Carrera

Howdy there all,
I'm writing this to ask for advice.
I recently got a new 997 Carrera in black/black with 6 speed manual transmission. It's at my house and while I'm here at school I have no ability to drive it. So I decided to plan out what I want to do for it. However, I haven't "modded" things out to the extent I want to mod this one.
My question is, What types of mods would you all suggest getting. I will be heading down to see Mr. Matson down at Automotive Specialists down in Mass. to discuss some of my ideas, yet I need to get some first :-P
Thanks for the input!

Some HRE's in 19" is a nice touch. (www.hrewheels.com)
Lowering spring you can get from Cargraphic
Bodykit, Techart has a nice one!

some HRE's on 996's

How much would a supercharger cost?

I do love Techarts- and since the car is black it would suit it well!

Also, How much do aerokits go for these days?

Go back to school

Porsche's school that is. Go spend $3K on driver's ed and you will get more from that than any amount of mods you might make.

Spend money on the driver first and the car second.
