Get a Chevy Performance CAI for warranty coverage and a set of take off SS wheels. For the exhaust, there are several different systems offered by the aftermarket if you want to change the exhaust.

Modding to me is for guys trying to get their Civics up to 210hp.
Exact reason I bought my SS. Beast out of the box. Needs nothing (although I needed an exhaust as non-NPP was a joke). Now I watch my $$$ grow.
Couldn’t agree more including the non npp part as I replaced mine with used borla ataks and couldn’t be happier. I will say though you get used to the power after a little while and want more haha. Modding NA cars only adds so much so I’ve learned it’s not worth it. And for some reason it costs a lot more to do a heads cam build on the 6th gens. Then when it comes time to sell the car, all that money you paid went down the drain because mods don’t increase the value of the car. Thus I am currently in the process of saving up for a used ZL1. Hopefully I don’t get used to 650 hp and want more in the future haha. If I do though it’s easy to add power to a car that comes supercharged from the factory.

You will get used to ZL1 power. I had a blown Mustang GT. I got used to it, except the lack of traction off the line. Then you’ll want more and get used to that. It’s really just a way to throw $$$ away.

These Lloyd Ultimats are very good indeed, I've had them for over 2 years, they are durable, do not fade or lose yarns and clean right up until they look almost new.

Disagree on these GM splash guards, though. While they do look better than the mudflaps, the protection they offer is minimal, they're expensive, and the ones in the front use rivets, so they're semi-permanent.

On the 245/275 they work good. and $180 for 4 body color splash guards is not expensive, at least IMHO.

I have them and can confirm what a arpad said. Also, you can’t put side rockers on if you have them. That being said, I do think they look nice.

While it sounds like you are focused on speed and handling, I highly recommend replacing the embarrassingly cheap plastic knee pads with leather-wrapped knee pads from the 2SS trim. I also highly recommend installing Husky Liners WeatherBeater Floor Liners.

A Coyote swap should fix Everything !!!!! I actually Got my self a 21 LT1 6 speed to go with my 18 A10 PP Mustang gt so i could Break balls on Both forums !Lmao Seriously there is so much aftermarket stuff for these 2 Platforms figure out what you like least about the car and start there ..for me on the LT1 im going for 20x10 square wheel set up on light weight wheels and sticky summer tires - then either a Magnusson 2600 or a procharger on 8lbs through my stock NPP exhaust looking for a nice 570-590 rwhp and driving it .

Take it off, put the original back on before it goes back to the dealer to fix your any driveline problems.
