I am currently designing my layout for my system in this car. I will also be doing suede headliner and I may change my seats a bit. Then painting the trim Piano black instead of the wood trim.

Marquies, how does the car ride since the drop now that you had them on for a week? I had my eibachs installed today and it looks great, a little rake from front to rear but I noticed the ride is a bit bouncy in front and I wonder if that will go away once the springs settle a little more or if thats because of the lowered ride but keeping the same struts?
