New CL premium

I'm new here I'm just trying to get some opinions here on what to do. I've looked all around but does anyone know for sure?

1) I bought a 2003 CL premium with 11,000 miles on it for $19K. I'm trying to figure out if I should have saved for the CLS. Is this a good deal and what kinda 0 to 60 time am I looking at with the CL-P (everything stock, except a K&N air filter came with it).

2) I'm looking for some cheap power. Any Idea's??? Cold air intake perhaps?

3) Anyone know where I can get a cheap painted spoiler?

4) What are the widest tires I can put on the stock 16 inch 5 spoke rims.

before anyone flames u and tells you to search, here are some answers:

#2- www.turbonator.com

#3 ebay an OEM M5 spoiler or a non OEM... seems to be the trend, unless u want the Acura OEM spoiler.

Do two things, it'll run like a CLS (not a 6MT, though)-

1) Good CAI- Comptech, or DIY (mine works great)

2) UR crank pulley-

These two will get you 18-25 extra hp- the CLP is a good solid platform, and I actually like the interior better.

Question: Why does everyone refer to their non type S as a Premium? When I went to the dealership there were two choices CL or CLS. No car in the lot had a CLP emblem on the back. In order to be a "premium" wouldn't there have to be a lower model? Im not pointing this at any single person but over the last two years these questions have really bugged me.

If you want a cheap OEM spoiler check out www.spoilerdepot.com They sell them on eBay for about $200 shipped I think and that's painted...I just got mine yesterday and it looks really good.
