Where in NY are you? Car looks OK. Needs a drop, badly. The lip is nice, but Im not liking the wing. If you dont want your old headlights....I'll buy 'em off you for cheap.

i think its a good start, the lip looks good, but it would look better with some side skirts and a rear lip. And im curious what is with your deck, why was it installed in the lower storage area? now you have a gapping hole in the top.

Not my style, but at least complete your lip kit. You have no rear lip. Before you get any "R" side skirts (LOL), get a rear lip.
Each to its own, but don't do a half *** job.

will probably look good in the end when you're done, but you went about your mods in the wrong order. should have lowered it first, then got rims then did the lip. just looks odd when you do the agrresive lip first with no other mods.

I think I may be adding to the fire here, but....Drop the ride on 17's and lose the park bench. Not sure about that blue gauge bezel.

If you want to lower the ride you have a few options. The cheapest way to go is to purchase new shocks and springs. For this I would suggest Tokico shocks and Tein S springs. Its a 1.7" drop in the front and 1.9" in the back. You can slap on a camber kit but for a minor drop its not really needed. Also consider dropping in a sway bar, both upper and lower. It will make your ride a lot more fun to drive!
Make sure you get an alignment done after a few days of driving the car around!
As for engine performance mods. Stick with a stage 1 or OEM type clutch. The stage 2 is not needed unless you're pumpin out more horses. AEM is a good brand for intake but you will pay a high price for either the short ram (SRI) or cold air (CAI) intakes. Do like I did and buy a cheap pipe online, but save the money for a good filter!
I have NEVER heard of Greddy headers burning up valves. If you want them, get them. I would suggest a decent cat back exhaust system as well. I run the Greddy Evo 2 exhaust and it sounds very clean.
Hope this helps.
