And to be clear i dont expect to make up 5 seconds as the top cars are produced by owners of a performance shop but if i can shave off 2 seconds then that will put me in top 10.
Suggestions for Aero body kit or a link to one?
Also its an automatic with the paddle shifters (didnt have an option of manual because of a leg injury and pushing in clutch)

Are tires all the same size? Also, if your suspension setup is just coilovers, you probably have a bit more you can do in terms of getting the geometry right.
Trunk is steel iirc. Hood is aluminum. You are taking weight off the back with the trunk though. I am 90% sure you can find what they actually weigh in one of the weight reduction threads. Also, it could compromise the structure if you want to get a wing eventually.
Verus Engineering has a pretty good reputation for aero stuff last I checked. I would take a look at some of the technical forum sections for ideas. I personally don't have any aero mods other than the basic OEM underbody panels.
If it's an automatic, you should look into swapping the rear diff and intake manifold with parts from 17+ manual car. Again, intake isn't going to make much more power, but if you are looking for 10ths, every bit counts. Manual cars have a greater reduction in the diff which should help with acceleration a bit. I am not sure if that would mess with the transmission or engine logic at all (I only have MT problems), but you could look in the technical sections for details.
