Congrats and welcome to teamspeed! Your car looks amazing.
If you were really sold on the 3.8 RS wing, I would suggest only changing that and nothing else. As others have pointed out if you start changing everything it would be absurdly expensive and might ruin the overall look in my opinion.

You have a beautiful car and soon to be a classic. Especially in orange.
I would do either full "RS MKII look" conversion so that it looks like a 3.8 RS from every angle or keep it as is and only add the new RS 3.8 wing and the same stock rear taillights / bumper as your car today. If you mix and match too much it will look cheap IMO. If you do get the new wing I would fill the 3.8 insignia on the side and paint the uprights matte black.

thanks again for the warm welcome guys!
i am still debating on what to do with the wing.. but i did not waste anytime and have started on upgrading the interior. here are two new mods that i have added in the past week:
Rennline pedals with throttle extension
OEM cf/alcantara shift knob
next up on the list is OEM cf center console and to paint the trim around the shift boot with body matching orange!
too bad Rennline doesn't offer their track mats and floor boards for right hand drive cars or else i would've gotten them too!
