Thanks everyone, Lol. now I just need to find a really good price. Coils was my first pick but after seeing skeeters pic, changed my mind a bit.

you can get them for about $1680 shipped to your door. Really good deal.

The hood is like m5 mirrors, it looks cool but its really expensive and doesnt do much for the performance of your car

I voted for the Vorsteiner hood just to be different and make your decision harder...

I'd get the Vorste hood, but the only thing stopping me is not knowing what to do with the oem hood... well that.. and not having $2K laying around..
