I would buy the Tein springs if your car is stock ride height. If it is already lowered get the headlights. IMO

why would you get tein S tech? They're only for looks as the springs rates are lower than stock springs. Why not get something like H&R race springs which are REAL race springs with the look and performance also H&R is a very reputable brand at that.

I voted for the benen rear lower tie bar. But it all depends on what you already have done to your car. If it's stock I would either get 1-pieces, or focus on struts/springs/coilovers.

LTB, changes the handling of the car quite a bit.
other than the 1-pieces, i see nothing else worth getting for the exterior.

save that damn 200 for a turbo setup OR suspension. Don't work on the body unless you just want to be show and no go. Oh and if you want some coilovers check out my omni- coilover sleeves for sale in my info.

I would suggest groundcontrol or omnipower coilovers. The ride isn't that bad either, that is if you can "handle" the stiffness. Then again when some people actually feel a bump they get mad and say the ride sucks, whatever. I drove cars w/stock ride height for years and I just started driving a lowered car and love it. Just save up for some koni yellows b/c your stock struts won't stay non-bouncy for long after the sleeve coilovers are on there for a while (they aren't super pricey though, i found a set for $420 shipped from a sponsor on here, that's what i'll be riding on come spring time).

Most people say they suck but i know of at least a few people who haven't had any problems with dropzones (including myself). But I think the best for your money would be the omnipowers since they can be found for only $50 more than the DZs. Don't go with the DropZone struts though, they suck real bad from what i've heard.

Big misconception: People think that when they get slip on coils (on stock shocks and even in some cases, uprated shocks), and the ride sucks, its the coils. WRONG. More than likely, the shocks cannot handle the coils.

Just make sure you remeber that when you get higher spring rate coils.

Also, dropping a car on stock shocks I wouldnt recommend either.

what about 1pc headlights made it amazing?

i'm treating my DA to a bunch of new bushings. mugen TA, some prothane LCA's, etc etc.

for a little more than 200 bucks, new motor mounts would be nice.
