Update on Appearance progress, More to come. Input welcome. (Pics) Well I finally plastidipped the wheels and tinted the tails to keep the black and blue theme going. Plastidip turned out pretty decent but im not sure if i like them or not, Do you guys think the polished look better?
Here are some pics of the car as it sits now! Lowering springs are coming within the next month, just gotta decide on a set.
Front
Side
Rear
What do you guys think? Which lowering kit would you guys suggest? looking for a pretty solid amount of drop but still a decent ride. Does that rule out sportlines? i know this isnt the suspension forum lol

I like the rear with the tinted tail lights and blk panel , post pics of the cme when its all done, The blk wheels look good i perfer the chrome or stock color on the blue color we have but it doesnt look bad being the back in blk and the rims are blk some dark tints would pull it together nice . and i just put a lowering kit in my car and it looks hot lowered but it was a pain in the *** for thr front and i ran into every problem under the sun
I like the subtle color contrast, wish the pics where better. My only comment would be that you need to decide on whether all the black is gloss (like sail panel) or flat (like wheels), thats my only gripe is that you have 2 different types of black, pick one and do it all that way.

I think it depends on how you picture the car being, show car like-then polished wheels, more menacing-then keep em black. I like it both ways, but thats a good thing about plasti-dip is you can leave it for alittle while and when you get tired of it pull it off and clean the wheels up!

looks good! and yes good ride and sportlines will never go together in the same sentence 
look good when the car is standing still but when riding in it you will hate all the noises

The BMR / Koni sale is pretty hard to pass up. You basically get the 1.2 drop springs free compared to the normal cost of Konis. I really prefer the LT1 taillights. They flow better with the trunk lines.

Pulled plastidip off because i missed my polished on NBM look, car still looks good with Berger and black tails IMO
