muffler, drop, or body kit

what would look the best to get first with an OEM body kit? a muffler, to drop the car, or to make a hybrid body kit and just put the tsunami front air dam?

drop it, then get your exhaust, then you can get body kit. that's my basic plan, kind of.

if you do like flex said and get the GC coilovers you will have to buy new shocks soon because they will blow the stock ones. if you don't have about 850 for the coilovers and koni's go with goldline springs. i would say 1.5in. would be a nice clean drop. not too much not too little.

why do you guys go muffler and exhaust before bodykit???

drop it first, then add a catback system, not a muffler, then body kit. add water and stir. and there you have it civic with a hint of fast and fury, lol.[IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG]

Definately lower your car first. Body kits don't look right if the car is not lowered. Once it is lowered you can go anywhere from there, exhaust, body kit, rims.
