My mats are by Lloyd - excellent quality. Went with the heavy plush.

I have the Fabspeed bypass pipes and love 'em. Do a search here on the forum, no one is really neutral on them. I have found that they have a nice resonance at low rpm's and are really pretty quiet at highway speed, you can carry on a conversation easily.
Here is a video of my car to help you gauge sound. Not the best quality but you will get the idea. Plus, easy to switch back to you mufflers if you want to.

I went with the RSR mufflers (search Robin Sun) and the FD Motorsports wide ovals (hard to beat their price point and service!)

They look very nice and price is cheap! But it says it only fits Narrow Bodies??

The FD tips fit narrow body and Turbos (even though it is a wide body). The non-turbo wide body tips are still in development i think. In any case, i have them on my TT so i know they fit!

Congrats on the new car...I'm on my third and reluctantly sold #2 
IMHO go with a black wheel - easier to find, easier to sell when/if you decide to upgrade, and no worrying about color matching.
Unfortunately a double din unit nor a flip up unit will fit without substantial modification. If you must absolutely have a NAV, one option is to source a "bat console" (do a search to find pics) and install the NAV unit and screen in there and put Bearcat/BearTracker (for *ahem* "safety") where the radio currently sits. Only problem is that the bat console is somewhat rare and pricey (still don't know why no one is making an aftermarket one in carbon fiber...they could easily sell 30-40 of em at $600-800/per). There is an alternative for NAV if all you need is a simple one without a screen...the old Becker TrafficPros were single din and went well with the 993 interior - unfortunately they are no longer made and AFAIK the maps are no longer supported/updated. But wouldn't it must be easier to just use the NAV function of your iPhone rather than install a dedicated NAV system?
...From my searching it seems that it's impossible to put a double din unit without cutting something and i definitely don't want to do that.....Now if there's no way to put a pop up unit does anyone know of a single din unit that has nav,bluetooth and ipod all in one. I've seem a few cool ones with bluetooth and ipod but none with Nav and Nav is really a must for me.....

For the clear corners I contacted Ruf in Dallas to get the real thing. I wanted to keep the bumperettes so these are the best bet. The ones that I got are not butchered from oversize lights like some of the cheaper versions are out there.
