I'll be getting mine on the 8th of this month!

It is not similar protection. Opti-coat is very clear that it does not protect from rock chips/scratches. While a clear bra is not obviously impenetrable, it does protect from rock chips and minor scratching. Opti-coat is like a permanent wax.

Exactly and if the right shop does the 3m to edges and is professional you never actually see it, some guys have the right talent and product to do good film jobs.

• 5 Axis Body Kit w/spoiler - $2495 (not sure if this includes the lowering kit or not will ask monday) << my spoiler was 399, so that isn't so far away
• TRD Exhaust - $1235 << my dealer is at MSRP 1100 (they hit me for 17 bucks on shipping)
• 18' Black Matte Wheels and tires $1695 << not worth it -- can probably get aftermarket for better and cheaper

i ordered the spoiler through the deal is was 380 shipped un painted and then cost me 150$ to get in painted

If you go with the 3m, make sure they get the whole hood. Not that first 1/4 of the hood.

If you want the leather:

If they offer leather, that means there is a shop in your city that does it for them and most likely for many other local dealerships too.

Find out which shop they use and get a quote from them. It will save you hundreds to spend on other goodies and your car won't be driven by another person(they're going to drive it to and from that upholstery shop).

Forget the Clazzios, they are just a cover. The dealer(shop they use) most likely will use Katzkin which is a new replacement leather for the seat, not just a cover. It's what you would expect as factory leather.

Well now that I have my car I can definitely say I wont be getting leather.
Just not worth the upgrade to me as I love how the stock seats feel and support me.

Going to get, and install myself, a Perrin catback nonresonated exhaust.
Still up in air about CAI. Either sticking with drop in for now or maybe install the TRD myself once someone posts some dynos of it.
No shark fin antenna.
Keeping stock wheels/tires until I wear out the rubber then doing an upgrade. Decided that stock wheels look pretty damn good on the whiteout color.
Going this weekend to get tint. Found great place that will do ceramic tint for less than $200.
