Were the headers custom? If not where did you purchase them?

THe stock height sportcross (especially) in the rear is ridiculous. Something subtle like the Eibach prokit springs will suffice. 1" drop all around. I would recommend something a bit lower like H&R or Eibach sportlines....which is around 1.5" all around. You don't need camber kits for any of these.....you can still get your alignment shop to get you close to oem spec pretty easily.

Here's my current look with 19" Volk Racing wheels. I am lowered about 2".
