As of now my FR-S is stock and I am wanting some opinions on top 5 mods I should do right now. I really enjoy going to car shows and showing my car and hanging with my son and friends. Also can I get some ideas on websites to make purchases for the mods? I really appreciate all the help!

So I'll just tell you what I've done since I've had mine,but ultimately,it depends on your end goals for the vehicle.
First thing I did was get wider wheels. The stock wheels look like trash to me,plus,I don't like how easy it is to break the rear end loose.
Got a Raceseng Ashiko weighted shift knob. I LOVE this thing. going from stock to a good weighted shift knob makes going through the gears a joy. I can't even imagine if/when I put a Kartboy short throw shifter in with it.
More cosmetic,but I added a TRD style trunk spoiler. I think without a spoiler or lip,the cars back end looks incomplete.
Recently got a HKS Hi Power spec II catback exhaust and a Grimmspeed CAI. Butt dyno feels a definite reduction in the torque dip,plus the sound of the exhaust isn't obnoxious.
Other stuff is tints,carbon fiber roof wrap,and smoked Valenti tail lights.
I'm not going for show car,nor track car. I just wanted something more than stock that's a little more fun to drive and is looks more interesting than stock. Probably the last things that I'll do is the aforementioned short shifter and headers & tune.
