Jay,
I'd say get the row if you have the stock panels all over. That is going to give it a nice sporty stance. You want to lower center of gravity as much as you can is the second other good reason to get the row.
If you plan on adding a fancy bodykit, trust me get the US version. Parking entrances often have tight up&down slopes (dragged the front lip about 25times). ROW is very low for side skirts also, if your rear tire enters a pothole deeper than 80mm you'll need to jack-up your car to get out of there lolll Of course none of that happened to me
So what this all means is, you can play in deeper potholes with the US M030. I think
