Okay, so I was giving myself the break down for the first $1000+ (Just a little over) I am going to blow in my car and this is also regarding the other $1300 for my car. So far I am going to get rims, lowering springs, and exhaust with the first grand (As next check is already getting the Tails). Second will include a body kit (If I can find something unique, I found out how to create your own but not sure if I want to do that) and with whatever left over to combine with the following paycheck to buy the head lights off of Lew (assuming he still can get a hold of them). Anyways, I see the price ranges for the springs/coilovers and there is a HUGE gap. I see one set price range for under $100/$150 and I see another set price range from $600-$1300. Which is the way to go? In the future, I would like to go AWD, so should I get some cheap ones until I am ready to invest into expensive ones? What's your thoughts? Because the shocks are wearing out on my car on the left hand side.

Lowering/Rims/Exhuast sounds like a good step, but when you get a body kit, make sure you have extra money left over for fitment/installation and paint. The only thing worse than a body kit that doesn't fit right, is an unpainted body kit that doesn't fit right. Believe me, it will haunt you forever laugh.gif .

The Tein S-techs and KYB GR-2 are a great choice and lower your car a good amount. Make sure to lower it before you get rims though haha smile.gif.
