Thanks a lot guys I really appreciate all the compliments and as far as lowering goes I want to but when I do that I plan on doing springs, shocks, struts, control arms etc. All at once so its done right and I can still have a comfortable ride, this is my only car so having a rough ride would be hell, and having to try and constantly get it in the shop would be a pain so lowering will probably come late this year or possibly tax time next year lol but it will happen at some point that is a certainty

Its funny you should reccomend those brands I was doing pricing on lowering it today and I actually decided on a set of bmr 1.25" lowering springs and a level 2 bilstein shock and strut package lol

Put on your big boys pants, and step it up to the Strano stuff! lowering springs, koni shocks and his hollow sway bars. Dont waste your time with the bilstein stuff. Its good but his **** is killer! trust me on this bro.

If I was doing it for more than looks and a smoother ride over stock is deff go with higher grade stuff, but since this is mainly just going to be for looks and daily driveability I think ill be ok with the bmr/bilstein combo, unless I wait on my tax return next year then I could possibly convince myself to go with strano grade options
