the best option in my opinion is the shadow line trim...it replaces the chrome around the window and it looks much better! Welcome!

I'd suggest the m5tech Cheap and looks better since you get the M5 look with the Mtech Fog lights

Thanks for the welcome & suggestions all. Is eibach 2" drop a little too much for the front ? I'm afraid not to rub my 245's on the fender when I turn.

The only way I've gotten those wheels to rub was on the front part of the fender liner...and the tire sidewalls on the front were only half visibile when that happened. It didn't rub with this posture:
