I'm turning into a broken record with this, but i recommed dropping the car as the first thing you do next, eff the rest, do all that later. you cant be a show car rockin the 4x4 look, i dont care what rims its sittin on, it wont ever look right with the monster gaps in the wheel well.

also, pink/purple headlights look like ****. its something that gives me mild road rage when i see it on the road, all that comes to mind is "WTF is wrong with that person???". as if blue wasn't bad enough... just giving my honest opinion here since you asked for it, keep what you like though.

is the 5% tint on in that first pic, if so, it doesnt look like 5. doesnt look bad at all, i like it, just doesnt look dark as 5

As for your future plans, it looks like a nice list of stuff to do. get a shorter antenna. clean up/detail the engine bay, maybe do a little painting in there to spruce it up a bit and give it a different look, and get over to emblempros.com/yofab.com/specializedstainless.com for some stuff to bring some life to the bay. maybe look into the whistler mod, since it looks so great on black cars

Yeah, I'd def. get rid of the purple/pink HID's in favor for either 6k or 5k but no more than 6k and no less than 4.3k unless you want the 3k for the fogs. I've not been much on the wheels you've picked out but there are worse ones our there though. The red LED's in the interior would look tacky as hell to me but then again that's me though.

ditch the colored lights! they look cheap and light like crap as crimson stated. imho black tinted tails on a black car is not so good looking. other than that good looking car wheels are nice, gd choice.

I'd go with cool white leds for rest of interior even though you already have red led gauge cluster.

Like what 408 said with the cool white LED's. I have em in my map lights and trunk/cargo light. They look great IMHO. They only problem I have with them is the area under the dash. But I had that problem even before I put the cool whites in and after I figure a way to rig it up, I'm putting the cool whites under my dash but I'm gonna try and fix it to where it looks like the car came with the lights under the dash and not look shitty but still come on/off when I hit the headlight switch and when I open the doors.

whistler mod, tint the 3rd brake light, rear CAMARO letter inserts, suspesnion, rims that are not corvette knock offs, coil relocation kit, nice valve covers, wire mod, a full engine bay detailing/polishing, a FAST intake, FAST fuel rails, ceramic coated headers, a nice cat back.

also nothing is sexier then a big ol' cam

and please stay away from the "engine dress up kits" i can't stand these things. to me it screams I'M TOO LAZY TO DETAIL MY ENGINE SO I'M JUST GONNA COVER IT UP.

as far as the carbon fiber crap goes. don't do it. you're not johnny tran, this isn't tokyo drift. please leave the fake carbon fiber for the ricer fanboys.
