do you want to make the car a 'race' car or a show car?

Get a nice drop first... go with Eibach, Neuspeed, or H&R for springs... depending on your drop, I would suggest going with new struts(shocks) as well...

Next would be rims... nuthin less than 18's on our model... go with 19's for a real pimpin look... choices/brands are dependent on your taste...

And lastly would be the body kit... Wings West Type-W gets the most votes around here... next would be the factory skirt package (what I have), clean and crisp...

And your done as far as exterior stuff goes... oh and whatever you do, DO NOT GET ALTEZZAS, repeat NO CLEAR OR EURO LENSES...

Happy Modding!
