What should I modify first? Wheels? Ground Effect Kit? or Get it Lowered?
Below is what it looks like now.
I purchased the IS300 when it first came out and then last summer got a LS400 (year 1) as a beater car for $2K (still runs like a charm!). After getting on this site, I saw lots of cool LS400s all pimped out so I started thinking to do the same to mine. Then I said "Why the f' am I gonna spend more on pimpping it out than I did on the car??" So then after beig on this site a bit longer, I started looking at all the cool SC430 and I decided instead to sell the IS and get a SC430. So I did last summer...but I didn't really think too much about it, but the reason i liked the SC430 so much is cuz they look AWESOME...but only when they're tricked out. Otherwise they look good, but sometime I look at it and think "God, why'd i buy this ugly car?"
I don't want to trick it out so it's slammed so much that it scrapes all the time or looks ghetto, or have too much bling, but I do want it to look classy and sporty. So the 3 things I do want to do is get new wheels, ground effect and have it lowered just a bit. But I don't want to spend so much money all at once. And I want to get pretty good stuff, not crap, so that's another reason I want to save up a bit before purchasing. I figure to get something now, then again a year from now and then 2 years from now have it all completed.
Would the order of acquiring these 3 goals make a difference for any reason, such as fitting? What order would you go in?
Thanks in advance!

i'd save up until you can afford wheels and suspension together. not much point doing them individually, they'll look a little goofy with just one or the other. i'd wait and do a kit after that. wheels and suspension make the biggest improvement.
