Next mod and don't know what to do.

I am waiting on my wheels to get to my Friday and i'm putting them on that night, well now i want to do something else to my car but not sure what to do next. I thought about Sparco carbon fiber foot pedals, and or Momo Carbon Fiber shift **** and E-brake. I have about 235 to spend. I also thought about buying a new muffler, maybe HKS, Apex'i, or Tanabe. Anyone know what i should do next? Also if you can think of anything else i could do that i haven't mentioned would help too. Let me know what your guys think.
There are no mods as of yet. Just wheels Friday. Well Tint if you count that.

I will be running 18" Konig Prophets with 215/35/18 tire. I would rather do something else to it, it won't need to be lowered that much.

What all do i need to buy in order to lower it, just the coilovers? Would exhaust look funny on my car since i don't have a body kit on it?

Also, how low can i go without it rubbing?

You can just buy springs, but coilovers are adjustable. Exhaust would look okay without a kit. Performance stuff is kinda a waste tho.

I would like to go all carbon fiber inside my car, Momo shift **** and e-brake and Sparco c/f pedals with c/f interior kit.

Also i was looking at the Momo "Pit Stop" E-brake and it says it needs an adapter, so do i need to buy it? there are a list of them but doesn't say the actual car model. Can someone go to the website and tell me what adapter i need. http://www.tornactive.com/pd_momo_pit_stop.cfm

Do i need a e-brake boot also or can i just leave it the way it is?

Lower your car with some coilovers then if your going for the all CF look for the interior then go ahead and work on that.

I'm not familiar with lowering kits, so all i need is springs or coil overs. Which is cheaper? And what size springs should i buy and or brand?

Will these fit, the guy said they are for a 2002 Civic SI, but don't they all fit?
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...969146842&rd=1

Here they are tell me if they will work. Or if they are a good brand or bad brand?

Well i just found this:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/e...7969146842&rd=1
$175.00 +30 shipping

but i went to Arospeeds website and found this:

http://www.arospeed.com/product_info...roducts_id=632
$167.45 +15 shipping

Arospeed adjustable coilovers are designed to provide ride height adjustment from 0"-4" inches (depending on applications) by simply turning the adjusters up or down while maintaining a comfortable ride. Each coilover kit includes bump stops, adjustable cylinders, coil springs, cylinder locking keys and any other necessary hardware. Available applications are listed below, however listing is constantly updated.

They are cheaper than on ebay, but are they the same thing? Is this brand worth buying?
