Keeping it simple for now. Thinking cat back exhaust, d/v, mild smoke tints, new alloys and sti 5/6 spoiler

Thats the starting plans anyway

I've still to fit my STi6 front lip, good choice. Cat back will be worth while too, just makes things respond quicker and sounds good too.
Loud d/v's are not my bag though. What wheels you got in mind ?
