Tips for the next step to take

2012 SWP WRX hatch Everything stock aside from catback exhaust! Some projects done were tinting, red footwell lights (regretted doing right after set up haha), arc audio subs and amps with 80prs (still paying for this but it's worth it IMO) Looking for any tips for the next project? May it be exterior mod or performance mods, etc? Thanks!!

I would invest in an accessport! You can find decently priced ones for 08+ subies under $400.

Noted! Before I joined this, I was already planning on getting one!

This is a noob question, okay, but does having an accessport require me to do some mods? I was just asking to have an idea of the expenses

Just decided to do some exterior mods first. Having the car protuned can cause problems with a car's warranty. I already did window tints and audio mods (shoutout to Simplicity in Sound!) last year. Do you guys know any shop around the bay that does affordable installation packages? I haven't decided which one to do first but I am thinking halo/hid headlights, rear lights tinting, front bumper lip, and side skirts. I am aware that all of these can be done in my garage but I prefer a professional to do it for me or at least somebody who has been doing these installations for a while now.

Nope! Stage 1 off the shelf tunes require no mods!
