I purchased the WeatherTech floor mats and was impressed at how well they snap in and fit the vehicle.

I started driving in "Dynamic" mode this weekend and enjoyed the increase in throttle response. I'm going to look into "OBDEleven" as this car doesn't play when it comes to incessantly reminding me that my seat belt isn't fastened. I'll also check out Europrice - assuming that's a website that I can find interior/exterior items to purchase....

Thanks all.

Keep the great suggestions coming, please.

Just had XPEL ULTIMATE 18" put on the front. He also used it on the side mirrors and rear bumper. The pro I've used for years swears by the newer XPEL over 3M's.

Hello,
1st thing i did was Clear bra and Opticoated it. Highly recommended to fo it right away, to avoid paint correction hassle. VERY happy i did.Car (GBM) still sparkles(better than new) wheels too(done). It washes off easily back to sparkle, even after heavy,repeated ski trips.
Tinted it, 10% all around. Amazing heat rejection (plus looks...&#128513.
2. Got few sets of wheels, 21s,22s,tires.
3.Wait gor APR to drop a tune on us...
4. Wrestling dealer for brake squealing issue...
5. Enjoy it...1 thru 5, actually.

cheers,

Bob
