:slap:

It offers the $1200 Acura OEM body kit, the Type-R spoiler, 17" wheels, high performance rubber, lowering springs and many other suspension components that make this the best handling Front wheel drive car that Road and Track has ever tested.

this is what it includes for $4,800:
*High performance, track tuned shocks and springs
*Slotted brake rotors and performance pads
*Lightweight 17x7.5 inch alloy wheels
*High performance tires (225/45VR17)
*Factory performance rear spoiler
*Under body spoiler kit
*Metallic look interior trim kit
*Factory performance shift knob
*Factory performance badging

Now, I know I don't want all of these but I have some questions about some of them.
I was thinking about getting these:
*High performance, track tuned shocks and springs
*Slotted brake rotors and performance pads
*Factory performance rear spoiler
*Under body spoiler kit

For sure the OEM KIT, and the Spoiler, but are the shocks/springs, and brake upgrades worth it? Are they good brands? I have sent out an email trying to find out how much the car will cost with just these options.

Thanks

That's obviously your own decision. Are you happy with the Type-S' handling or would you like to take it to the next level?

They are of the best brand available...they're made by Honda.

oh yah, on a side note, im not sure what color to get ... i was thinking either black or white......... i am getting rid of a black civic so i was leaning toward white because i have already had a black car... but then again i dont know if i really like the interior on the white car, the black cars interior is really nice..... any suggestions?
