That would be my choice but it's not my decision banny. Manifold up / down pipes may be black ceramic coated but waiting to find out.

Don't think are customer will go for it but I can always ask
On a serious note if any body wants to buy a full set of STI springs / shocks or full set of Brymbo calipers / discs and pads removed from the car above with 17 miles on the clock let me know. I don't know if these items are backwards compatible, I'm pretty sure the springs and socks are not but the brakes might be.

The brembo fronts will be compatible with most, it's just disc is 114 but buyer can get redriled for 100.
The rear calipers however won't without a special bracket afaik.
But at delivery mileage I'm sure they'll fly out.
