Performance Package Question *update w/pics*
I just got my Performance Package installed and I got a trunk full of extra parts, did anyone else get these parts and what should I do with them? (and if anyone could explain to me what they are)
Also the dealer insisted on keeping the factory rims. Is this standard?

Well after talking to a different sales manager he agreed to give me the rims
Purchased at Sundance, surprising Jarman has a bad reputation. They were the only dealership that really seemed to be quite honest with me.

The big box and the fabric mesh tube is your stock intake. The tray that looks like a maze is the under tray for your airbox. The two struts I have no idea!!! I have never seen them under the hood before.

When I got mine I found the same parts in my trunk. The dealer told me to hold on to them and when I return the car at end of lease I return these parts to them.
I asked about the original rims they said they do not return those. Also they told me that the engine cover did not fit due to the cold air exhaust - when I came home I tired it on and fit nicely - no rattle noise.

You might want to keep the white box......thats your new MS filter cleaning kit. I suspect the small box is a socket for your lugnuts....The front license bracket may come in handy too.
If you ever decide to switch to a RB Revi intake you may need the lower airbox tray and the engine cover.

salveya: I originally liked the stock rims more also but the package rims grow on you fast. I'm going to stick winter tires on the stock rims so i'll get to see both sets yearly

PatInTheHat: I guess I'll throw them on and use the stocks for winter... saves me having to get winter rims and the MS rims are very sharp. How does it sound with the MS CAI on it?
