you need a drop big time though; way too much wheel well space there.

clear corners are a small mod that makes a huge difference, along with the smoked headlight mod (if thats what its called) Need more pics though. I noticed you have hockey stipes? Hard to see but I bet those look good too

Yeah, if you're looking to win shows or something, different wheels (CHROME) would really set it off. With that body kit, you definitely need to lower it a bit. It just looks a bit odd- like it should be lower.

Mods never end! Definitely lower, even with the ground effects. Hotchkis makes a 1" kit that would probably work well with ground effects. If not, Eibach Pro Kit. The sportlines would probalby be too low with ground effects.
What's the engine bay look like?? If you're going show, it's got to be as clean or cleaner than the exterior! Just ask Steve!
Also, anything done to the interior? Judges will look at that as well.

using show car too loosely!!!! thanks for the reviews guys - yeah I agree the car is definitely a long ways (and a lot of $$$) away from really being a showcar - I think I used that term too loosely
. chrome 18's, a 1" drop and a new interior (I hate to admit it I have that disgusting zebra-safari 
tan cloth
) would be a step in the right direction, but for now I'm happy with the progress
Anyone want to sell me some black leather seats?
