JDM headlights, a stearing wheel, maybe an exhaust (i cant see if there is one), CF trunk and hood are really nice.

i dunno. but stearing wheels arent so hard to take off. You just need the adtapter (i think i dunno not sure) and a stearing wheel puller. Oh and disconnect the batter and wait like 15-20 minutes the air bag will not go off while your taking it out. Just be extremely careful around it.

i'd go with black wheels instead of white... maybe try to get that line out, get rid of the window visors and i'd say the cf black altezza tails would look good and the projector headlights and color match it to your car and put some bixenon hid conversion off ebay

First off I would remove the weird looking window things. They look like crap. Then I would get rims that actually looked right on the car. White on dark red? Huh? Get some black rims, or polished silver, or ANYTHING but white.

im gonna check those lips out and some coilovers. i def want to get it lowered soon. i think that i might be getting bronze 16" enkei evo 5's in the future to lower it more. ive also thought about seats. but from what ive read in other forums is that its a pain to do and you cant just get seats. you have to get different belts and all these brackets and pillars and whatnot.

some nice recaro or sparco seats would be nice. but i think u should first lower it cuz it'll change the look completely. btw "a bodykit redout the tail lights clear corner headlights" is ricer..dont do it. but def lowering it should b first priority then a lip kit.
