Well if you want my opinion I'd remove the fog lights, hood and lower it a bit and get rear discs..
Do want satisfies you most.

id say lower it more, get a stock hood, and throw on that rear disc conversion.

other than that, personally im not a fan of the bumper, but you seem to really like it so go with it.

Slam that **** and find an oem hood and you are golden. Not too big on the front bumper, but it's not half bad. I think it will look a lot cleaner without the foglights

I like everything but the height and the wing.

And with a hood like that, I hope you got some power under it.

and as far as the power comment i use to have a fully built lsvtec in the car, but have since pulled it and sold it bc im having shoulder surgery and will be out of work for awhile and wanted to make sure i had cash to fall back on.....right now just a mildly built ls with b16 trans and ls 5th gear

I'm not a fan of the bumper, hood, wheel size but if you like em, keep em. It just needs to get dropped. What kind of suspension were you thinkin about getting?

my opinion is....just give it to me, yes....just give it to me. it may take me awhile to undo all the abuse that you've done, but after a few months and some work, i promise your EK will have a good home and will be very happy out of your hands...

Get rid of the hood.
Get rid of the mirrors.
Get rid of the wing.
It needs a drop bad.

The wheels are okay. Don't worry about them now. Bigger fish to fry. ^^^^
The issue with the fog lights isn't that bad.

Just do whatever makes you happy with your car. It's just that if it was my car I would change everything that I stated above.
