Hi, thanks for your interest and appreciating
A few details to your questions:

Spacers: H&R 20 mm all around
Exhaust: TRC. Replacing the rear parts and the T-shaped pipe. (= axleback I suppose) around 650 EUR. Sorry, no sound clip till now. Sound = decent at lower rpm but a good roaring when kickin' the pedal. Goes a bit to imitating a V8 engine. http://trc-tuning.com/index_shop.htm
Carbon: A stick on vinyl film (Folia Tec). Was a hell of a job to get that on. As it starts to detach when the car is in the sun I might get real carbon. Perhaps for X-mas if I get enough money. LOL
Seats: Standard interior for sports package here has a synthetic leather comparable to the looks and touch of alcantara. I like it very much as it won't heat up nor cool down too much. Seats are heated only, not vented.
Switches: They look dangerous but don't do any harm.
One for the Nav hack to enter addresses while driving, the other for the backup cam (which in fact doesn't work right now, still tryin' to get it go ).
Was sort of a fun idea to use these. LOL. Man I wish I had NOS...

Looks great. I like the drop, the wheel flushness with the spacers (I'm guessing), and the front lip.

My one criticism is that I'm personally not a big fan of the new grill, especially without the 'L'.
