nice kit, that car is definately a head turner.
I was thinkin, you might wanna think about painting your brake drum and calipers red.
I did that on my stock lancer and everyone noticed and thought it looked sweet.

i agree with imajinmyfx, i'm not a big fan of painted calipers or drums unless black. that is, unless they are a brand worth showing off which are already colored when you get them. i just like the cleaner, slick look and have that not stick out.

that looks SLAMMED with that kit, any problems with bumpy roads? What are you lowered on? Everything looks great, i would just suggest cf depos to flow with the dark scheme you're going with.
I'm def. Diggin' Dat!

bumpy roads aren't really a problem, its driveways ... driveways aren't fun with the lowering and new kit. I have to go hella slow, go at an angle and pray I don't scrape .. ive scraped the front about 3-4 times and the rear i think twice. I even raised it up about an inch or so to help out.
I've got NEX sleeve coilovers (which were for an 04 ralliart, but fit 02/03 LS/OZ as well) dropped about 3/4 of the distance. I think i'm like 5 1/2" above the ground on FB+RB . .the lowest part on the SS is like 4 1/2". I'm trying to save up for a real suspension, but this does okay for now.
edit: I need do new tails bad - these ones actually have some moss growing in the edges and leak whenvever I wash them. I'd put stock ones back on, but have misplaced one :P I was thinking evo7 tails, but will have to take another look at the cf ones.
thanks for the comments guys.

I would like tinting ... but not like limo tint, something which darkens it a little, not too overboard. Its all about money :P my wife controls it, so I don't get to spend as much as I would like LOL

can I have your address so I can steal your kit ? 
Looks awesome, and if you ever want to sell it keep it the same color, I got a TG 03
Paint and mount wasn't cheap, but they did a good job. I was gonna get a bodykit, but the paint/mount didn't really fit into my budget so I went another way heh.
But yea, the car looks great !
