Thanks guys - pretty happy!
Am I right in thinking that modding is heavily frowned upon by the authorities in your neck of the woods? Hence your mission to look oem.
Its more that the car is only 4000km old, I didn't feel like doing too many mods that I couldn't just unbolt :)
I'm also not an enormously extroverted guy (until i'm drunk haha), so tend to go for stuff that matches me as a person.
Car being an extension of your "being" (you know which part) and all that.
I like the way the stock bay looks with the engine cover in place. I know you can't see it, but it is satisfying for me to know it is all basically standard looking.
I also really like that
APR don't force you to buy an intake to go to stage 2+, which (although you'll get gains from that) means you can keep the quiet/stock airbox up front but still have plenty of performance.
The fact you don't have to buy an intake also cancels out some of the premium you pay for APR gear.
I tend to like a drop and good wheels on these cars - some have much more done to them very very well, but there's something about the OEM + tweaked look that appeals to me. Moreso on a limited model like this one.
I'd like to say it was a sleeper, but the stance kind of gives things away :)
