I wouldnt paint anything on the body. The car has a brand new paint job and you don't want to ruin it. If you want it to look good slam it 2 inches, and throw on some nice wheels (atleast 18's). If you want it to pop more than that, a OEM style CF hood.
 
you should have no concerns about lowering your car... you've got more feel for the road, handling slighty better, and since your going for looks then it helps in that dept. as well. if you want a streetable setup get a coilover kit, and not ebay :nono: tein makes a reasonably priced coilover, it might not be the most aggressive as far as handling but it will give you the drop and ride height control your going to want. with coilovers you can adjust them to get a desired ride height... if you do a shock and spring setup once its on there what you see is what you get. low is good but ask any 2g on here with a 1.5" or more drop how much a PITA it is driving around town. :notgood:

and for my .02 cents on your vinyl photoshops... if your trying to promote your business make a clean ride, not an over done one. i understand you might need a company logo/decal somewhere on the car but putting on a samurai sword or tribal vinyl down the side might make your car look different from the rest, different isn't always better.

good luck.

I don't understand, Stormtrooper? Do you mean dress up in a stormtrooper costume and drive around?
Or maybe stormtrooper seat covers? Star wars figurines on the dash?

I LoL'ed!!! Well panda is a good one. cf hood, cf trunk, possibly a lip. Some nice wheels and lower it then call it a day with the body.

Yeah I dont wanna go lower than 1.5" Like 1.3" in front and 1" rear maybe?? I was leaning towards spring/shock since it seems to be cheaper then a full coilover setup. And I already got nice[in my opinion] 18" rims so Im covered there.

And mm...not me tryin to promote my company bro. I definately would not put any vinyls on my car.

Haha, your thinkin about the wrong thread dude.
 
Yeah I think that looks sick. But I like my current rims. But if I find a good deal on some different rims Ill put some serious thought into it. I just dont know how much my current rims are worth.
 
Black rims with a chrome lip look really good with a white car. When the sun hits it, pow!
