[QUOTE=bnizzle87;6295830]The cosmetic aspect is pretty much done. I have mine pretty much blacked out as well. Some may like it, while others obviously think it's over the top, but in the end it is your ride. In my opinion, I think the next best thing would be coilovers as opposed to springs only because I, too, have the same MY 08 and it is quite stiff for daily driving. Coilovers definitely help in that aspect, and the drop is quite nice. There are some great sets that are available (Tein Comfort Sport, HKS HiperMax, BC Racing, KW V3, etc.), so go with what you feel might be the best option for you. Also, the Joe Z intake complements quite well with the exhaust, and if money is tight, that might be the next mod to get.

so what was your cost on coilovers...i have heard the ride gets better with springs only...but then does it get even better with coilovers?

You can get into a decent set for $1k. Price goes up from there depending on brand and features. I personally would not waste a dime on Springs with coilovers you get an excellent ride and they have adjustablity for a reasonable price.
