Looks great, really digging the black! I'd say a suttle drop would not hurt.

1 to 2 inches at the most. Cost is really gonna depend on what you use. Full body coilovers would be ideal, but they are the most expensive. Could probably get out for about $300-$500 with shocks and springs. Definitely make sure the suspension is in good shape before you start upgrading.

oh ok. that will have to wait a while then. lowering it's not a top priority for me as of right now but i do want to get it done eventually. I was thinking of putting on an intake next. That honestly should have been done a long time ago. Pretty much everything i've done to the car up to this point has been for looks so it's time for performance. I know an intake wont significantly effect hp or anything but they make your car sound better in my opinion and i really want to get that deep sounding exhaust as well.

Any suggestions on brands for those 2 things???
I'd be glad to listen to anyone's input

(im not looking for a fart cannon either. just want a genuinely deep sounding exhaust)

I used to have that Kenwood deck in mine before I sold it. Loved the usb port.

Clean car sir.

Looks good, but now that I've finally seen beam shots of those projectors, I know my gut instinct that they should never have even been made was correct. I'd get some Autopals or Hellas and replace those conversion housings. The rest of the drivers on the road thank you in advance, and you'll thank yourself when you can actually see the road at night.
