Nice, time to reliably add 200 whp. Maybe even swap in a 2JZ because that's the worlds best engine.

Just remember to swap the clear bulbs for amber while you're in there. I didn't think it would be so fussy and now I'm unwilling to take them out and deal with those clips again. I feel like I was just lucky to get them seated.

The clips and plastic on the side marker are so brittle on some of the aftermarket ones. The JDM ones sat perfectly and clipped in right, make sure to get quality ones if you can.

I left mine stock for 3 years before I started adding mods. For me, the warranty came into it, plus you get to know the car better and work out what you really want after time. There is nothing worse than spending good money adding a mod only to regret it and replace it with something else. Congratulations and enjoy the new car!

but on the other side, changing the aesthetics are some of the cheapest and simplest that makes the car more one's own.

welcome! The first mod should change out all the lighting. It looks amazing with just a small change.

First mod should be addressing the fact that your car says "diсk" on it twice.
