Rear sway bar to fix that understeer (BMW Performance part). It was the also first thing I did in my 2003 GTI way back when.

I wouldn't really think that you would need a clear bra down in Cali. I have it on all my cars but I live in Canada where they gravel the roads in winter because of the ice and snow (they clean the roads of all the gravel come spring).

I really do recommend it if you live somewhere where the roads aren't great or if they gravel them in the winter, but otherwise if you've never had problems with chips in your bumper before I wouldn't bother. Save the cash.

not sure, but

HID high beams (since they're cheap)
tint
catback exhaust with cat delete and CEL difuser
suspension (whichever offers the best package)
LSD
then LATER on, sending it to AMS to get a single turbo 35r and EMS
in the mean time, if someone offers some nice used wheels i'd probably pick it up... i'm basically gonna make it a highway runner like a Supra, you know, racing street bikes...

Sport pkg comes with the same tires as the base. Sport pkg doesn't add special tires.
