Looks good, I'm working on my coupe right now, holding off the swap for a trip to Japan though.
Seeyou are about to lower it. What kinda springs or coilovers? I just put Sportlines on mine and am very happy. Prokits didn't lower it enough, but sportlines aren't as stiff as I'd like, but much better than stock. I'm running stock GSR shocks though, I'm sure mucho better with the AGX's. But makes the wheels and tires look mucho better, I have 15inch Si's with Kuhmo 712's 205/50s.

Thanks for the pictures, it looks great. Your paint looks to be in good condition - want to make it look brand new, apply Meguiar's professional polish #7, let sit for 30 minutes or more, then buff. A coat a wax after is a good idea too. I love a black car just after a detail, looks better than any color on the road. Plus, Meguiar's products are the best.

FYI: Why you let the polish sit is because the oils from the product need to "soak" into your paint, longer you let it sit, the better off it will be.

No, I don't work for Meguiar's - sure sounds like it thought...
