Mod decisions- a little help?

Well I just picked up a 2005 WDP base TL with Nav a couple months ago- I drive this thing like crazy (600+ miles a week), and so I want to be a little more conservative with my mods. I want to keep it as close to stock as possible because I'm in it all the time, but I definitely want it to stand out a little bit and make it my own. SOOO, after looking over wheels, exhausts, CIA's, wider tires, etc... I think I've come to a decision.

I think I'm just going to keep everything stock, except I would like add a drop to eliminate some wheel gap and then add spacers (I'm thinking 15" front and 20" back), because I like the look. I'm going to keep the stock 17" wheels and same tire size to keep my driving life easier and to save some money!

Maybe someday an a-spec kit will be in my future, but for now I'm going to save the $700+.

Any thoughts/recommendations/comments?? Also ANY PICTURES YOU GUYS MAY HAVE THAT WILL GIVE ME A BETTER IDEA OF WHAT I'M LOOKING AT WOULD BE GREAT. Thanks!

I think that sounds good. You can do coilovers, which are more expensive but you can adjust them to your liking, or you can do shocks and springs. There are many variations to what you can do. I am on H & R sport springs with tokico blue shocks. They gave me a drop of 1.4"F and 1.3"R. Very nice subtle drop that closes up the wheel gap.

Be careful with this website, before you know it you'll be modding out your ass! Good luck with the car. WDP BABY!
