I think you are correct - I just read some reviews for Shift and they are mostly horrific.

I would love to see the pics after you black out the trim. I don't think I have ever seen that done before on the RC-F. The one thing I truly don't care for are the rear tail lights. In particular, the silver or white bits. The look was much improved on the facelift version. Is there an aftermarket solution for that? Not interested in masking it as it looks just as bad.

So someone in my area is selling an RC-F identical to mine with many of the modifications I want for the same price I bought mine a month or so ago. It possibly might be worth it for me to sell mine and get this one since it has about 10K+ worth of mods on it. I am offered what I paid for mine from driveway.com, but would lose most of the tax. Anyone knows this particular car?

I am not sure if the mods are worth selling yours to get that. Besides, I am not a big fan of the ARK exhaust. Rest are all aesthetic mods. It would be a hassle selling yours so much rather just mod your own, if you are happy with it

I love my car, and it would be a headache, and my wife will not be happy. The other issue is that this car is completely wrapped so I would have no idea what lurks underneath. I am considering a cat back exhaust but perhaps not ARK

From personal experience, if your wife also drives with you, get the Invidia full exhaust. You will not regret it. It is the perfect exhaust to have an aggressive sound while still having the ability to enjoy it with your wife, kids etc. My wife even thought Invidia was a bit too much and initially said stock sound was better.
