I'll tell you this much, don't get them from the dealership. If you buy them from someone else besides the dealership you'll save some MAJOR $$. I regret getting all the stuff I did from the dealer. I got rims, spoiler, cargo net, aplique, fogs, etc, etc, etc. I could've saved over $500 had I bought them from a parts dealer. Also, check into some other intakes. AEM is good, but not the best.

I only got floor mats and the Orange AEM Intake with my RS1. I know that everyone bags on the AEM but it's only 1 hp difference. Also, I love orange... Since the orange version of the AEM is hard to find I didn't feel bad about buying it from the dealer.

But, when it comes down to it... DON'T BUY ANYTHING EXCEPT FOR FLOORMATS FROM THE DEALER! You can get it all for about 40% less or more online.

The dealer tried to sell me 18" rims for $3,000.... yeah right! I got 18" gunmetal wheels with tires mounted and balanced with no tax or shipping for $900!

I'll prolly only get Fogs & the Spoiler, but if I can get the for less here (the Internet) I won't. I don't really like the TRD Stuff, but maybe that's just me.

I got a bunch of the dealer installed stuff and with what I have found on the web now, I wouldn't have gotten as much stuff as I did from the dealer. The only good thing about the dealer is that if you dont have the money right now to add the upgrades after you buy it, you can get the stuff and have it included in your payment. If you have the cash to spend after then get aftermarket. The only thing dealer I would get if I could redo it would be the spoiler and fog lights. If warranty is what you are looking for then get TRD stuff and the AEM intake.

I've been thinking a lot about this issue too. I've decided to get the fogs, rear bumper applique, rear spoiler, cargo cover, bass tube, logo decal, stainless sill guards, floor/cargo mats and factory security system when I order my xB ;) Just over 17K as configured.

I am going back and forth about getting the interior LED lighting. Right now it doesn't make the cut.

The strut tower brace, wheels/tires, cold air intake etc I will get aftermarket already priced out some nice 18" enkie wheels /w bfg scorchers for about $900 from tires.com ;)

I am doing everything I can this summer to save every penny for a decent down payment! I plan on orderiing my xB in September :D

Floormats, rear bumper applique and useless joke of a cargo cover.

The fogs can be picked up aftermarket for around $200 and takes 15 minutes to install save yourself 100-150 and feel good knowing you DIY:

It really is this easy. The hardest part was putting the relay in. The printed instructions on that aren't as good as those pics on overboost. Still, it's a piece of cake...

I ordered the wheels from www.wheelsnext.com They are still being delivered so I can't fully say that the company is good or bad. Also, www.victoriatire.com has great prices. I went with wheelsnext because they aren't in CA so I don't have to pay taxes
