I took my car to a show on the weekend, ill post the pics up soon...

anyway, i always want my car to have that clean look...however, by doing so, I loose out on bling bling factor...granted i didnt have any dress up stand or anything, but i just want the car to stand out more than it does...

My car:
Nordic Mist
OEM kit w/ mugen rear wing
JDM fogs
18" RH M5s
Lowered 2 inches
spoon exhuast
tint
red sparcos
retrimmed (slightly) interior (doors, centre console)
Stereo consisting of TV head unit and trunk install...boot install is black vinyl paneling with amps recessed in glass box with red lighting and capacityor on side also with red lighting and 2 12s in the trunk bottom. PS2 and stacker can be viewd when rear seat is lowered...
Engine bay I have red valve cover from my s spec engine and thats it...

Getting:
Polished AEM intake
Polished neuspeed strut bar
Big 4 pot red brake calipers on huge cross drilled and slotted discs (about 13 inches big, or enough to fill the front rims)

Thinking:
Braided hosing in engine bay
Chroming vlave cover
getting 3 gauges recessed in dash...and maybe the VAFC (which is currently just sitting on the stand on the dash)
autometer tacho w/shift lite on drivers side corner
even lower springs (just for shows) or coilovers of some sort

What do you guys think?

ANything I should/shouldnt do?

As I said, hopefully Ill have pics soon...
I DONT want to

Sometimes the more you "stand out", the more it takes away from your car. You don't always have to have the "bling-bling" look to capture attention. What you're thinking of doing sounds good though...not too much, not too little. I say go for it!

All that sounds great,youd be pretty much finished after that,
your car is allready clean to begin with. As far as the lower thing,
depending on how many shows you go to, you will probably
get teird of messing with coilovers or different springs
Do you have any level side view pics..... where the wing
can be seen a little better
