I'm late to this again:

Suspension + Custom CUT the Hood + Silverstar Bulbs =

I've talked toooo much about suspension already, you should Really do a search.

But here's a brief

<500: Springs + shocks (no bars, no nothing, don't need them if you don't do autoX)
500 < $$ <1000: Full Coilovers

stock wheels + 1.5-1.75 drops is your deal, lower will slam your bottoms.

MAY need A camber kit for the front, SPC or Ingalls, The rear just use Grade 10.9 Metric size M10x1.25 pitch 60mm longs with 10mm or 3/8" washers.

Use Dremel to Cut the Hood + Grill + Mica = you have a nice looking hood that shaved off a few lbs.

Do the 9005 Conversion on your cord and you should be find. Don't need to aim them since your car is lowered.

There you go, if you want more, please do a search.
