I would say shocks/springs if you want to go looks first, CAI if you want to go engine first.

if i were you, dpeending on your experience aznd knowledge of cars...i would stay simple and do either an eibach sport suspen. with kyb agx's or nuespeed sport springs with agx's...or some tokico's are good....mine is nuespeed sports and agx's........if you dont want that low go with eibach prokits.........with prokits you dont need a camber kit, with anything lower you need a front camber kit.the back will be fine

i'd say start with cosmetics: clear corners, shaved emblems, indiglos, etc. then move your way to the suspension. in my opinion about the CL ... go looks before performance. you're the second asian girl i know with a cl. what's your ethnicity?

Somethin' like clear corners is one of the cheapest and easiest mods to start with, but if you want performance, I'd start with intake, and if you want major looks, then drop it like it's hot!
