Just go aftermarket. If you already have a base gsr and want the sss package it will probably coast a boat load. A few people like Varis are selling good aftermarket wings. You can maybe find someone going wingless and buy theirs for cheap. Get a pioneer sound system or whatever aftermarket setup is good. You could do it better and probably cheaper then the dealer would.

If you factor in the cost of true HID lenses, projectors and bulbs, the SSS package doesn't seem that bad for what you get... Plus, the fast key system can be pretty good.

SSS package is pretty much a good deal. At this point though you have no choice but to go aftermarket unless you could be very persuasive with the service manager and get a deal.

I think buying the headlights in the aftermarket is very expensivo! Projector retro fits are pricey, plus you've got to install them, etc... PnP HID kits are very cheap, and work nicely. It all depends on the deal you're getting and if you can live without those amenities and are willing to do alot of the work yourself... Myself, I'm not in love with the aero kit or the high SSS spoiler. I'll probably either remove it, or trade w/ someone with a smaller spoiler. I like the low key look.

The easiest and cheapest way to get the SSS package is to have it pre-installed as a package through the manufacturer. It would be much more expensive to piece the OEM SSS package after you have already taken delivery of the car and had the dealer install the parts.
