I don't know about worst mod, but definitely worst financial decision ever: brand new set of Volk CE28n.

^ Ahh yes, the most expensive things dont always bring more satisfaction. However I am sure you should be very happy with the volks nevertheless. Would rock Volks instead of my CR kai anyday.

worst mod was the CF downforce front splitter. what a waste! 0 downforce, breaks with a flick of a finger! DO NOT BUY! SO CHEAP TILL THINK WHAT I COULD HAVE DONE WITH THAT 300 DOLLARS ENDED UP RIPPING IT OFF IN AN OPEN PARKING LOT AND LEAVING IT THERE.
2ND REPLICA OEM SPOILER NEVER BUYING NON OEM BODY PARTS UNLESS RESPECTED COMPANY AGAIN!

AUT Cooling plate. It did absolutely nothing performance-wise and fit like crap so I had to dremel the holes so the screws would fit. Also, my hood wouldn't shut unless I slammed it. It did look pretty good but how often does anyone except myself look at my engine bay? I sold it for what I paid after a week or two.

I've only owned the S for a few months, but the worst mod ive bought is the ipod adapter to the stock radio. Thing never works, over heats and shuts off. Picking up an alpine ida-x200 and the das control module friday.

You picked up a cheap one then. My USASpec one is fantastic.
