i can't say enough. get the duplicolor engine high temp enamel paint from kragen/pep boys, etc... they are like 4 bucks a can and it's more than enough of what you need. people talk about G2 paint, etc... yeah they might be good but they are expensive. i have had my paint on for over a yr and they are just as shiny and strong. it's the same stuff.
and for color, i would only do either black or silver.

Rick, I would stay away from the H&Rs, they have been reported to ride very harsh for a 1.6 drop I would go with Espelir, a member here has them on his GS4 with 20s and it looks very nice! I will go the gallery and find the pic then post it for ya!
And as Rom said, if your offset is correct your fine for a 2.5" drop if you want, conversely, if you have the wrong offset then you might rub going over dips with NO drop
Oh yeah, what size tires do you have? If you have 255s in the front then you will probably rub, you will need 245s (this too depends on your offset!)

Rick, here is a pic of the car I was talking about, I think he has 20x8.5 wheels with 245/35-20 tires all around, I cant really remember, the last time I saw him was last summer. His screename is futruegs and he goes to school in FLA, so MAYBE he can meet up with ya and let you check it out!!
These Espelir springs are rated at 1.6inches
