I always say stance and wheels make the look of the car. I'd do coilovers and wheels if you have the budget. It's a double benifit since the suspension and better tires help braking and handling as well.

I don't mean to sound completely idiotic, but what does FI and Cobb AP mean? Sorry if this is a stupid question.

I have looked at the HKS Coilover and am thinking of putting some password JDM carbon fiber under the hood.
I would like to powder coat the rims, but think everyone is doing the black. I would like to go with something different.

FI = forced induction aka turbo/super charger

Cobb AP = Cobb AccessPort ECU tuner

Forced Induction i/e Turbo/Supercharger. Cobb Accessport, its a tuning device that can be used to tune your air/fuel ratios.

Thanks, but FI is a little over my budget. Those are running around 8-9K right.
