Welcome! Very clean car, and great choice on the colour. 
I love the gunmetal A-Spec wheels.
A-Spec just refers to the appearance package (think BMW M-package/Audi S-line/Mercedes AMG package) and has no performance benefit, although I have no idea if the underspoilers actually make it slightly more aerodynamic.

I forgot about the suspension.

I've seen a lot of dealers put that badge in the "wrong" place just like they did on the OP's car. I don't understand why it's so hard to just follow simple instructions on where the badge is supposed to go.
Weird.

You know, I could've sworn I saw instructions for the dealerships with exact measurements and pictures for its placement.

Clean ride man...don't really need to do many mods IMO. Type-s tails and u are done, unless performance upgrades are in your future... Plus you've got the rare gunmetal 8.5" wide wheels...looks like they're in near perfect condition too. Nice find.

I agree. Suspension looks too high to be Aspec. Here is my auto when it had Aspec suspension.
Not trying to thread jack, just showing a comparison picture. The front sits at around a 3 finger gap and rear was about 2 fingers. Auto with auto Aspec suspension.
Anyways to the OP you still got a great car for only 15k. Take care of her
