There are a few IS's around with just gfx kit and slammed which looks fantastic imo, bodykit is just for people who it want to stand out and make it more aggressive if you ask me

Im thinking 20s with coilovers. And maybe a front lip.

Sounds good but remember you're on 20's and if you are slamming you will need your coilover dampening to be more stiff which means less comfort from having stiff settings and 20's but I never owned 20's so I wouldn't know if they are as uncomfortable as people say they are. Also remember 20's are heavy so you will feel the drag, I already feel weight dragging on my 19's Works VS-XX compared to oem 18's
