I've been saving money the past few pay checks and still saving... But I'm stumped on what to buy next as my next mod. So far I've been looking into a custom cat back or lowering the Corolla. I've been looking into a major mod, nothing small like I've been doing lately...
Mods so far:
-Tints
-Injen CAI
-Roof Spoiler
-Sport Pedals
-Red Calipers
-CF Door Pillars
-CF Front Emblem
-LED Interior Lights
-Decals here and there
-WeatherTech Floor Liners
-LED Trunk/Reverse Lights
-Nokya Arctic White Highs/Lows/Fogs
^^^^
For exhaust which brands would you go with for exhaust? Pro/Cons?
For lowering the Corolla which route would you go and what brand? Pros/Cons?
-Coilovers or Lowering Springs?
-Ride Quality?
-Height?
-Etc.
Besides these two mods, anything else you guys would do?

Coilover pros: adjustable
Coilover cons: stiffer ride? Expensive as heck (IMO )
springs cons: wears out shocks and some ride quality
spring pros: cheaper than Coilovers
idk what else...im studying at the same time and a little tired...TN is the only thing keeping me sane
as soon as i can figure out why there is a god awful hum when i plug the sound jack from my camera into my sound card i can send you a video of my 40358 borla pro xs muffler with 2.5 pipe from the convertor back.

First of all I fixed your "tints" mod.
I know you want both of these mods but I would do the springs first. I personally wouldn't go lower than Eibach, but I do enjoy my TRD springs for their ride quality & improved handling.
As far as the exhaust..........BORLA!!!!! It like the Porsche ad, "there is no substitute".

Drop it... Ride is nicer IMO, handles better, and looks sooo much nicer!! TRD Drop ftw
exhaust is nice, but you get looks and performance from lowering it.
just my 2c

TRDs lover 0.5 in front/1.5 in rear. Eibach is a good drop in comparison to TRDs, since the front sits 0.5in lower. If I can do it again, I would get eibachs and call it a day.

Reason: more info
I didn't see any H-Techs for the 10thGen Corollas on the Tein site?
Does H-Techs offer the same drop as Eibachs? Again they weren't listed on the site...
Any better place to buy the Eibach Pro-Kit? They were listed for $271.43 on the Eibach site seems kinda pricey when you can buy S-Techs or TRDs for a little bit less than $200
