Wow, that is one clean car! Very nice looking. Looks like you have a black interior too, which is always a plus. If only those rims were 2+" bigger they would look pretty

WOW, that car is really clean and in excellent shape for the year. What's the mileage? The rims look nice, but as stated above a lil small. Much better than the regular wheels. I think the car would look much better/agressive with the rear lip installed instead of the OEM mudflaps. Some 02-03 tails would complete the look when done along with some 3A exhaust tips.

Very clean bro, where do you stay at in Tampa? I don't think I've seen you around. I replied to you on the other thread. The first thing I would do, since it's no big hassle on labor or your wallet, I would do the mesh grille DIY. For suspension, I love it slammed but if you want a subtle drop then I think the H&Rs would be good enough. Also the 02-03 Tail lights would be a good start for any black TLs.

Trust me, the right set of coilovers are worth it. Specially when you have to take the car to the dealer or something, and you need to raise up the car so they can drive the car up on the ramp or whatever. Things like that, you will need to adjust the ride height.
