Smile Bought a Cayman S!

Finally bit the bullet and purchased a Cayman S!! Any suggestions for upgrades? i.e LED lights? Already has Tubi exhaust and K40 installed.

Depends on whats imprortant to you and how much $$ you have to shell out

You want to change the look of the exterior? Go Faster ? make it handle better ? you goung to track the car ? that kind of info

Honestly, I'm not sure. I'm going to CPO the car and don't want to do anything to derail the warranty. I was thinking some LED lights for the front to give it a bit more presence. It has the Carrera Sport wheels on it and I was thinking I definitely need another set of wheels. Any suggestions? The exterior color is GT silver. 6 speed. Adaptive Sport Seats. Full leather. Nav. PASM. Sport Chrono. I was considering putting some black mesh wheels on. . . any suggestions?

If you want some all black mesh styled wheels there are some nice ones out there .BBS just came out with some and I have had my eyes on these 19 inch RUGER MESH Style BLACK Wheels for a little less $$.I would sugest Lowering the car though .some nice coil overs is the way to go .
Or just have your current wheels powder coated all black.this has been real popular lately .heck for $400.00 I got mine done

My sugestions for a silver car would be .
1.have the rear spoiler painted black
2.Side vents painted Black
3.Lower the car with Coil Overs
4.Have the stock wheels powder coated all black or get some all black mesh wheels 19" perhaps
5.Add side skirts (pretty inexpensive ) at NR auto acessories and get them painted silver to match the car .
6.some sort of front lower lip piece,there are a few
I have seen this setup lately on a silver Cayman and for the $$$ its drop dead perfection .

I'm really liking those P40 look alikes in the black mesh. Thanks for the suggestion. Anything else you guys were thinking? It currently has the multifunction steering wheel. . . I'm thinking of changing that too to a sport steering wheel. Anyone done this??
