The car looks good for a start. I think after you lower it, put a full lip kit and paint the door handles/mirror/lip of your grill, it will look very nice 
oh and I dont like that pin stripe...
Other than that... I think the engine bay looks pretty colorful.

get rid of all the company stickers on the car. looks tacky, get rid of the redish chrome badges, that looks tacky too. it was a good idead though. drop it. then get some new shoes. the engine bay dont look HORRIBLE, but it looks more orange than red, and you should have left the radiator cover black.
those very few changes will make your car look ALOT cleaner.

Rep Power: 350 Its a good start but i have a few suggestions. Loose the tail-lights, no more red in the engine bay, and drop it. And i would paint the radiator shield back to black.

Rep Power: 244 - tails, stickers, red emblems, red rad cover, pin stripe
+ 04 tails, NADABOH (needs a drop and blacked out headlights for the n00bz), 16" or 17" rims, black chrome or gunmetal emblems
not bad though

Rep Power: 275 OEM Tails > CF Donut tails
Company Stickers < Orginal Stickers
Drop before rims > Rims before drop
and the radiator cover being red is just taking away from the other accents.

Rep Power: 257 ^^lol...
can't say i agree with everything that was said....but here's my take:
1. get rid of the stickers, red and silver just don't mesh well IMO
2. drop and wheels, in that order
3. easy on the red engine bay, too much contrast and it quickly becomes rice
4. the emblems are just lame, sorry...
5. listen to us or don't, it's your car....but you did ask for good or bad...
6. pon said it best, slow down. take your time and do it right. if you don't i guarantee you'll be doing it again when you realize you don't like it, or it didn't turn out right.
7. have fun. it is your car after all. as long as you like it, who cares??!!
