What to do next? Need everyone's help!

Okay guys and girls I have some money to spend on my car and I need help on what to do next? I have a 3.5 2010 Polished metal metallic. So far I've done the following...

XLR8 jpipe with 3rd cat deleted installed
Magnaflow mufflers installed
Quad exhaust tips installed
Resonator and mid muffler both replaced with straight pipes
K&N short ram intake installed
20% tints all around
Black plasti dipped wheels(just for now)
Grill painted to match car color
Debadged
Roof spoiler installed
Trunk lip installed
Foot wall blue lights made brighter by drilling the plastic housing
Continental DWS 245-50-17 tires



I will be getting new wheels for Christmas and will be lowering it around the same time so those two options are out of the picture for now. Now I need everyone's to help to give me some ideas on what I can do now to make my car faster, sound better, look better, handle better, and just be a better overall car! Any mods at all will be helpful!!!! From little mods to larger ones, any help will be greatly appreciated. I would say I have a pretty decent amount of work done on the car so far but of course I always want to do more!

Thank you everyone and let the ideas come flying in!!

Since you have pretty much everything and you're getting wheels and suspension. My next mod would be the oem lip kit. That's the final piece to complete the look.

Clean sweep for the lip kit, which also gets my vote.

Try contacting my buddy Rob at Acura of Lynnwood. He's the parts manager. Just tell him RT sent you and he'll beat any price. I can guarantee it. I've brought him too much business haha and everyone has gotten the best deal on their parts.

(425) 775-2925
Ask for part department and then ask to speak with Rob. He's there in the mornings I believe 6am-3pm. I know others on here can vouch as well.

I'd do it for everyone. I'm not gaining anything without it. I've already built my friendship up. I just like to help others out.

Always have. Always will.

Let us know how it goes.

I contacted Rob last week and he quoted me $985 and will ship it to Iowa for a little over $100. Compare that to what Acura of Johnston wanted ($1439) and its a no brainer. Ill most likely order it within the next couple weeks. Shout out to carbonTSEX for the connect.
