Seperate, this the cost of the sport pkg
Akebono Brakes = $3,700
Vicious Limited slip = $2,000
Sport Rims = $2,160
Sport Tires= $1,300
Rear spoiler =$400
Chin spoiler= $110
Grand Total= $9670
If you're not going to buy a sport pkg and want to upgrade? Be prepared to pay out. So lets calculate the sport pkg used
Akebono used $1600+
120 for lines+
250 for shytty used pads+
$80 for fluid = $1950/not including install.
used limited slip $900
used sport rims $1200
used tires 60% tread life $600
used rear spoiler $250 and possibly may need paint? up to $400
used chin spoiler= $70
Grand total= approx $5000 or more american USED.
you pay out the azz for going half-azz. you do the math.
NOT COOL

i know, i was misinformed and was too excited and didnt do my h/w as well about the type of calipers, thats what screwed me. so now i suffer.
as for wheels, im grabbing 20's and tires, but i really want the akebonos, so ill probably try to find some spare change and get it
