1. Nothing
2. Profit

I guess I am already in "next car" mode and have been for the last 2 years, even sold a few mods. Because of that, I am reluctant to put more money in the car even though my front lip needs a paint job and I could use a new driver side front fender. I have been tempted to pick up a set of Buddy Club seats to replace my F1spec ones.
I also am looking at a Hypertech programmer for my daily driver Mazda3, already did springs, shocks, and rear sway bar.

 

My plans for 2012:

OE 2012 Exige wing
Reverie Shark Fin wings
Reverie CF Exige roof scoop
New slotted (properly vented) rotors all around
EBC brake pads - yellow stuff
Baffled oil pan
Oil catch can
Improved Bar & Plate intercooler
2.9" supercharger pulley (compared to the stock 3.4" pulley)
550cc injectors
Exige Cup air box
BLADE300 Tune
Reinforced toe links
Rebuilt (stronger) transmission (courtesy of SOS)
Second set of wheels so I don't keep going through tries like its candy

I think that about sums it up! :-)
