This goes out to the new owners as well as all of us still waiting... post up what mods you plan to do to your car.

For me definitely exhaust (if it is as quiet as I expect) and wheels. Tint (absolutely necessary where I am) and possibly spoiler. I liked the OEM spoiler from Honda but will have to wait to see what accessories come out with for the coupe (if I can wait that long lol).

First thing I'd do is get rid of the factory tires. That alone will better the car's acceleration, handling and braking. I'll consider the accessory trunk spoiler too which improves the rear end's look.

With the CTR inbound, we will likely get a strong offering in suspension options for this generation. No more Taiwanese "cookie cutter" kits. KW, Koni, Bilstein, Ohlin, Greddy, and other reputable brands are all rumored to be developing factory matched components for the Si and CTR (and possibly their base counterparts).

Mods for me will be minor. I got the modding out of my system with my mazdaspeed 3.

I might do a drop-in air filter or intake depending how those shake out. Possibly door sill guards. Maybe replace some of the regular bulbs with LEDs, and I might have an exhaust shop do some work or just get an axle back depending on what comes out.

I will replace the halogen fog lights with either LED or HID to match the LED headlights on the touring!

Tint first thing and maybe HID lights later on. If WeatherTech mats count, add that as well.

That's some great news if true. This being a Japanese car (though not sold in Japan funny enough) we'll probably also see offerings from TEIN, but I trust the German brands more if they come out with parts. Drooling at the thought of Ohlin coilovers for the Si, but cringe at the possible price.

Same for me along with getting some tints. I saw the '16 CR-Z has an optional LED fog light upgrade. Think it'd be possible to get a dealer to swap those in, or would you have to do it fully after-market? (ignoring the fact that doing it after-market would obviously be cheaper than what the dealer would charge if it were possible)

Have to have tint where I live, so that's always a first. Probably won't be getting a touring which has the only wheels I like so wheels might be next after that.

Underbody glow bars and NOSSS! Just kidding.

The car already looks pretty aggressive so it doesn't need much in the way of aero additions. The 2 rear spoiler options look nice but I'd like to see them from more angles.

Car is pretty quiet from road and air noise which is good, but I might want to add back in some induction noise with an intake and maybe exhaust noise with a catback exhaust.

It's too bad they hid the exhaust tips. Some nice black performance tips are a good excuse to swap out the exhaust too.

Another mod I would consider, I like what Galpin did with the blacked out grille, spoiler and door handles.
