Looks or performance
I just bought my first FTO of many and it's all stock besides exhaust and extremely well kept engine/interior but the paint work is covered in scratches, and I can't make up my mind if I want to make it look good or upgrade it's performance first, could some let me know what they did?

Re: Looks or performance
I would go performance over cosmetics...
But, then again, there is not a lot you can do with them performance wise...

I talk a lot of sh*t, usually have to keep a roll of toilet paper handy in the car for my mouth

Re: Looks or performance
I would say a bit of both actually. Some performance mods such as intake upgrades and exhaust upgrades will net you good power without having to spend a bomb. Apart from those 2, wouldnt do any more performance wise before looking at the visuals. I guess you might do slotted front rotors and lowering springs first as well come to think of it.
