Hood with better heat extraction
Front brake cooling ducts and side body vents

And let me guess ... all this for less than the $3500 that the 5th gen 1LE costs, right?
It always amazes me when people want everything & the kitchen sink on the 6th gen 1LE, when in reality its never been much more than a pretty basic performance pack.

you see im not trying to say the 1LE is useless package but im saying that we don't have 1LE this time INSTEAD we have all the options in the 1LE package by itself. For example I hate the matte hood but I want all the performance goodies that come with it so I choose MRC, GFX and 6 piston brembos without having to deal with the hood this time  |
Stiffer springs are not the same as on-the-fly adjustable shocks. Yes, they're both suspension upgrades ... but thats about where the similarities end.
The GFX kit probably does nothing for aerodynamics. Such kits are almost always for looks, not performance.
