So this weekend I bought a set of used H&R Sport Springs from Socale39 and had it dropped over at SONIC MS. They also did an alignment and fender roll for me on all four corners. I wasn't sure if I wanted to lower my car or not because it already looked fine with the Stock Sport suspension. It actually already rubbed on all four fenders, but I really wanted to close the slight gap left over so I said why not.

Lastly, my window sills were really beat up so I bought some gloss black covers for them and it looks 100% better. Here are some before and after pics.

Thanks again to Socale39 for the springs and the whole SONIC MS crew for taking care of me.

I thought the new paint job completed your car. Now, it's even better.

Thanks folks

As far as Sonics'pPrices are concerned just like most vendors and shops within your area the more you come to them the better the deals get. I've gotten a ton of stuff from them so Darwin cut me a break for the drop, fender roll and alignment. The initial quote tho was 7.
