I have IPD springs and bilsteins waiting. They wont slam it but they will give it a sportier look. I also changed plans from the TDR's and went with Riken black mesh wheels with a nice chrome lip. They better fit a car with this dated shape.

Here are pics of the latest progress.
1- Got the interior all put back together with the exception of the door panels as I am waiting until after the windows are tinted and the remote locks are installed.
2- Got the tail lights hardwired. Probably the most satisfying mod to date.
3- Got the bumpers and all the trim put on.

Here are pics of what I had at the end of the day.
