Thanks for the support. We currently are working on the RS honeycomb grille and a steering column cover w/ single guage pod.
Honestly we have access to creating both appearance and performance related parts. It really comes down to the demand (especially when tooling and molds are involved). As a result we really need your input and feedback in making decisions on these parts.
Please keep the ideas coming. The rear camber adjustment is a good one, we are going to look into it immediately.
Thanks

If you guys can make exterior mods then along with all the spoiler requests, you could definitely make a much more affordable body kit solution (preferably a factory painted one.)
You see the best no-hassle option right now for our TC2 is the Five Axis body kit. What makes it rediculous is that they sell the damn thing pre-painted (like it should be) for $1,800+. That is insane for 3 small pieces that you glue onto your bumpers and two side skirts. But it does look very nice; here is a picture of one of the members on here with what looks like the Five Axis body:
All it is is just a couple of small fiberglass pieces that glue onto the stock bumper. It's simply ridiculous to be charging almost 2K for small pieces of painted fiberglass. The two side skirts (which are the only parts actually exchanged from the stock ones) still do not make it worth that much. I think this kind of overpricing is lame. It should definitely be more affordable, and I think you guys at Supertek may be able to make a kit similar to this for much less.
As far as appearance goes, I think many of us might be interested in something like this that is more within reach.

Couldn't wait until the weekend so I decided to install the shifter today. At the same time I installed TWM short shifter bushings (cable and base.)
Shifting definitely feels different. Likely comparable to the TRD quickshifter since they look identical. I'll give it a week to settle and for me to get used to it for a definitive review. So far I only test drove it once and shifting is a bit faster thanks to the shorter distance.
