and about the wheels (they are steelies)
i am tired of getting ragged on all i wanted were opinions

You can have it all, you just need to plan well.
1. Buy the bumper. Install it unpainted to save some money. An unpainted body kit is better than nothing.
2. Go to autozone and buy purple headlight bulbs, looks like HID's and costs less. IF you always keep your high beams on people will think they are HID's, and you will see more of the road. If autozone doesn't have purple bulbs, just spray paint the headlight housing with a little purple.
3. Don't buy lowering springs, just cut a few coils off of yours.
4. Make a deal with your friend and put the wheels on lay away. When you have enough money you can put nice rims on the rear wheels and leave steelies up front. This is good for drag racing ( I know cause I watched all teh fast adn the furius movies at least three times each). WHen you have saved up your money you can put the front wheels on and maybe even buy a 5 inch exhaust tip at pepboys.
