get some kyb gr-2 shocks/struts and thats like 2 or 300 buxs and some tein s-techs. but yer car sits so high you should save up and get some eibach sportlines. its like a 2" drop. most people dont like the s-techs cuz their to "soft". prokits and sportlines r suppose to be better

Lower it please. If you are going to be drifting or start, I would upgrade suspension first. Don't know if your car is HICAS, if not I would look into a VLSD. Welcome.

couldn't help you on that, but I do think you could benefit from a front lip, that'd be pretty neat looking on it.

What type of lip would you suggest good sir? I hope you don't suggest the zenki lip. If so then you should really look at how that looks. I really like this front lip/body kit http://jspec.com/ait180sx.html very simple.

please dont take my comments to personally... but u are asking for my opinion and im only gonna be honest... if i sae ur car id puke on ur rims cuz it would only make it look better... looks like u just put a gold spray paint to them and its looks cheap and we all know looking cheap looks bad.... sorry if this sounds harsh but if ur asking for opinion expect the good and the bad :\ i guess u can look on the good side and take it as a pointer.... as for the $400 powder coat them back to silver :D

I'm not liking the gold rims either, but those Teins DID help. I would stay with some gunpowder or regular alloy rims, but thats just me
