You car would look better with the front lip and factory tail lights. But if you like your circled tail lights then keep them. Do what you like.

I was going to get a Greddy front lip .. but someone told me that front lips poorly attach and they come off all the time, so I would be better off getting a whole new front bumper. Is this true?

Not true. The lip fits perfectly and as long as you put it correctly you should have no problems with it comming off.

Hmm well that's good to know. He said they attach with double sided tape so there is no point in having one. If I was to get one, which would you recommend?

here is what i would do, remember this is my opinion. sell the grill and the tail lights, put the stock ones back on. put your stock lip back on if you didnt sell it, then use the money from the grill and lights to buy a nice set of h&r or eibach springs. the wheels look pretty good so i would keep them, but hey its your car do what you want.

Those are the light up nozzles aren't they. EWWWW.

Anyways, I would basically return the car back to stock form if it was mine. Lose the tails, wheels, mesh grill, white wipers, and light up nozzles(if they are). Oh Yeah, and go ahead and drop the car. Sorry man but That just isn't the route I would have taken. And, I love the look of a stock, dropped SI.

Good job on keeping the cars clean look though.

And, in your sig it says you have a AEM CAI, where's it at?
