As always: track time -- especially considering that the poor thing has just been sitting for months on end. Get it back into the environment it belongs in and enjoy it.

To OP,

I actually like the look of your S!

Besides the exhaust and body kit, what other mods are already on your car, may help us...

I have the K&N FIPK intake and love it, but not sure how it will sound with your exhaust. (my exhaust is stock)

New exhaust and a FIPK intake. Suspension and new wheels would be good as well. Full detail. Full swap over to AMSoil for fluids. Also what do you mean about worrying about rain if you got a hardtop? No hardtops require the removal of the soft top so you can still drive with the hardtop off and if it rains put the soft top up. I am not a fan of the kit but I think the wheels and ride height make it look much morse that it is as do the silencers in the exhaust.

Lose the whole body kit is a great idea. Suspension could be good

thank you sir will keep all of that in mind, and sorry for the noobness,i honestly didn't know it could be kept on there. ive owned her for less than a year and i am still learning more and more about this car. most of the time im at work, field ops, or now a deployment but once i get back it will be game on with the learning. thanks for the input, the more and more i get told about the bumpers the more i want to take it off and go back to stock
