Here's my last dyno run:
I was thinking of ditching some stuff, my wipers, gas lid, and chrome rims. I know a guy who can get the same carbon fiber sheet from ViS and overlay the top of my car so the whole top of my car is Carbon Fiber.
Below are the rims I'm considering, what do you think?

My mugen bodykit should be here any day now, I also found an Acura dealership in Las Vegas that has the Comptech Supercharger for the A/T and bought it from them. I haggled the price and got it for 3k. I also ordered me the mugen headers/cat combo from Kings Motorsports. I'm going to do all the performance upgrades first, then take it to a trusted friend to do the bodywork.
Let me know what you guys think.

Under the engine, I forgot I also have.
Hondata Heatshield
Unorthodox SS Pulleys

I already ditched the wipers, and will order my volks soon. I don't plan on losing the wing, i'd have to get another carbon fiber trunk.
I will definently have pictures updated once I have all my upgrades done.

I would lose the spoiler, wipers, and put that bodykit on ASAP. Also, change the wheels. If you do those things, your car will look 100 times better.
Also, where did you order the Comptech SC from? Are they selling them again?
Also, I bet those wheels are slowing you down. Those look like some heavy chrome 19's.

It's great that you're trying. I respect that.
The wing wouldn't look half as bad if you got a nice kit to compliment the large wing on the kit. A member on here, search "Time Attack TSX" had a wing on his car like yours, but he had Work Rims and the Mugen Lip kit to compliment everything and it flowed very well. You can ditch the wipers, and you don't have to ditch the gas tank cover, I'm sure it'll look decent after you get that kit. (FYI, go Mugen Full Kit + Volk Rims) then you're set.

Not bad jdm05tsx - think you've overdone the rear wing, and not feeling the blue trimmed wipers.
Should've opted for the silver CF fuel flap - would've blended in more.
B-pillar faux CF trim looks pretty good.
But, if you're happy with how it looks, then that's all that matters at the end of the day.

Dude, you do what you want and as long as you like it that is all that matters! And just like EuRTSX said, point out the few things that may help you out instead of saying s*&$ about it. Like, you already changed the wipers (or they are order), the wheels def are probably slowing you down, and that wing would look A LOT better if you got a body kit to compliment it. Other than that, props for all the money and hard work spent!!

Thanks guys.
The body will complete the car and help the wing, I understand not everyone likes those type of wings but it's all about the bodykit.
The supercharger I got from an Acura Dealership out of state, they had 1 automatic and 1 manual transmission, I haggled the price and got it for 3k (brand new). They needed to get rid of their stock. All I said to the guy at the dealership was "look, the company is out of business, no warranty, this is a 100% gamble on my part" so he lowered the price from 4,800.
The APEXi controller was used to tune the Air & Fuel Ratio, I mainly use it to view my rpms, battery level etc.
The rims are slowing me down, I found a local buyer to take them off my hands and will order the Volks in the next few days.
The wipers were changed to black, the license plates were changed and got mugen screws.
The bodykit and sc should be here anyday. I will do all my performance mods first, then take it to the bodyshop and have them work on the kit.

Oh, and was it hard or easy to replace the OEM fuel lid?
