Default Opinions/Thoughts? (got lots of new mods on order, what next)

So far, I've ordered/gotten these things:

SRT Intake w. Race ECU

Tanabe Super Medallion Hyper Exhaust

HP Racing EVO Wheels (19x8.5 front / 19x9.5 rear) w. tires

Escort Passport Solo S2 Radar Detector

2 12" Rockford Fosgate Punch HE2 Subwoofers

Rockford Fosgate BD1000.1 Monoblock Amplifier

Custom Box w. wiring

I'm planning to order this month:

TTE Front GS Lip
TTE Rear GS Trunk Spoiler
DSR V2 GS Front Grille
DSR GS Polished STB
Springs - not sure what kind yet, I'll see after I get the rims and system put in to see how much I gotta lower it, but right now I'm lookin' at Tein or Tanabe or L-Tuned

what do you guys think so far? what should i do next? think i should've not done something or changed something?

i'll get pictures up once everything is installed and here

I would order the springs next. If you dont want to do coilovers then I would get Espelir or Daizen springs. They give you a bigger drop than the eibachs. But since you are not opposed to spending money you should just get some coilovers

I'd say install everything. Then look at what you feel is missing from making your car complete. However, as previously mentioned, you will probably want to go with the drop next.
