Simple mods?

Sup,

So I'm picking up my new '08 graphite pearl TSX (auto w/navi) next week. It's leased, so I can't do anything too crazy, but I want to make it "my own".

Any suggestions for some simple mods that I can do so I stand out a bit? Not having a white or a black helps alot, but still, I want it personalized!

if it's leased, and you want to just stand out fromt he crowd, maybe lower it and get some new rims.

since it's a lease, I'm not sure you want to install a new suspension. Rims would be your best bet. I don't know if you can tint with a lease, but that would look nice.

He mean you should remove the resonator. Do a search on "resonator" and you'll see a number of threads discussing the benefits and the how tos.

getting new rims with no drop would look silly.

you don't have to replace the entire suspension. just get some springs.

Tint, M3 lip spoiler, and LED conversion. Do a search about the LEDs. For not much money they can change the look of your interior quite nicely. I for one opted for full hyper-white LEDs all over the car - full interior and my license plate lights.

Cheap, easy first mod for anyone. I get compliments about my interior lighting from pretty much everyone who gets in my car for the first time.

How about de-badging it? Save the badges and re-apply them when your lease is up.

You can peel it off before you turn the car back in...
