Hi All,
I have had my '19 FiST for a little over a year now and have been enjoying it in mostly stock form but I've got a little cash to spend and want to do so me mods.
I've only done some cosmetic stuff up to this point but want to put the cash towards performance stuff that won't void the warranty since it is still so new and with only 11k miles on it.
Here's what I have so far:
Cobb RMM
Short shifter (DFJ Short Throw Shifter Lever Transmission Plate Bracket )
Here's what I'm considering:
-Cobb Accessport (would use "safe" tune to start with, Stage 1?)...Would buy used off here for $350-$400
-Air filter for the tune?
-Pierce 6 point brace ($350) OR Whoosh 2 point brace ($90)... Heavily debating this one due to price difference and limited funds.
-Spec-D smoked taillights (ok, not a performance mod but my FiST is white and I'm trying to delete the red). Due to fitment complaints and the fact that it would wipe out 1/3 of my budget, I'm not sure I'd want to go this route.
-Other suggestions not on the list???
Finally, another option would be to forget the performance mods and hold out for a set of Recaros in mint condition for $1100 or less. I've never actually sat in any so this is kind of a wildcard. Based on my size, 5;8" and athletic build, I am not worried about getting squeezed by them. It would wipe out the funds though and I'd better LOVE them.
SO, how would you recommend me spend the $$$ given my criteria and desires?
All input is MUCH appreciated!!!
