Just bought a 2006 what are my mod options? I searched..

I just bought at 2006 Sedan and I've been looking to put some mods on it. Engine and exterior.
1st of all I want to add a front chin spoiler but when I asked the person at the dealership she told me they didn't make that for the 2006 anymore. Is that true? Can I get the aerodynamic package that they offered in 2006? I am looking to get the side skirts, front chin spoiler etc.
Also what is the best clear bra to get for my car??

Also as far as the engine goes what's the best bang for my buck right now? I've been doing some research but it looks like the spacer would be the way to go on the 280 engine. Is that right or should i get the MREV???

It's bone stock right now.

Any websites you guys can give would be greatly appreciated.

thanks!

for engine mods
do the MD 5/16" isothermal plenum spacer
or you could get a crawford plenum
this is, of course if you want to go NA

the dealer clear bra seems fine to me

try the full aero kit (oem)

the 3m clear bra would be the best. You can get the front lip spoiler for the 06 and the factory splash gaurds (aero kit) from everythingg35.com

intake system or k&n panel
z-tube
plenum spacer
cat back exhaust
test pipes (removes pre cats)

not too much available for the exterior, everythingg35 is a good site to check out though
wheels
lower it, either springs or coilovers

thanks guys. I figured there wasn't a whole lot for the 06's.

Where can I find the OEM Full Aero package for a 2006? All I could find on everythingg35 was the front chin spoiler which I'm definately getting.
Any ideas?
Also where can I get the 3m clear bra?

thanks again, can't wait to start modding my car!

If I was to work in groups,
  1. tint ($250) & clear bra ($500+), a must do first, especially with summer rolling in
  2. intake, z-tube, plenum spacer: totals about $450
  3. wheels & tires: total varies but figure $1,000 for tires and $200-$600 per wheel
  4. stereo, stereo may need to be last if your going all out and want a coil over kit for your suspension
  5. all exhaust components, cat back, test pipes total about $1,200; headers are an extra $600+ and you have to get somebody to install (PITA)
  6. lowering springs & shocks/struts ($250+ for springs $150+ for each shock/strut); if you plan on using a coil over kit ($900-$1500 plus install), I would do that right before the wheels so if you have a problem with fitment, you'll know right away
You might be able to get the clear bra done at the same place that does tint. Who ever does the clear bra, ask to see some their work. If they don't have anything for you to look at keep on searching. I've seen some shoddy examples from places bragging about their work. I'm getting clear bra installed in about a week. The place I'm using did my tint. They use a computer to cut the material to the exact shape as they did with my tint. I'm getting the bumper, head lights and mirrors done. I don't want the hood done because I don't like the edge/line to show. I'll pay about $675 for this but I trust the work will be to my liking.

I'm not a fan of body mods unless they look factory so I couldn't tell you what's available or where. If I were to do body mods, I think I would do that before lowering though.
