Default Car resprayed, now need suggestions

I just got my car back from BBK, I had an STi scoop sprayed and fitted, a front lip sprayed and fitted, and basically, from the rear doors forwards resprayed.
Came out brilliantly, Im quite happy with the results (Benson does good work). Although now, it leaves me with the next thing, I want to put on side skirts, possibly rear, and also my rims (lowering the car is also somewhere on my list) but I am looking for suggestions on what skirts, rims etc. you think would look good on the car.

Looks good mate, front end looks tough. Now hopefully Benson will give me a call over the next couple of days to paint my new spoiler.

I think it looks good how it is. skirts are going to make it look a bit too ricey for me. just a nice set of rims and lowered, she'll be shweet as!

Also, anything drastic with skirts, combined with that lip, is going to give you hell over any sort of bumps. you will be making weekly visits to benson...

chuck saved money into engine hehehe mmmmmmm tuuurbo

Guessing it was yours down there with just about the whole thing rubbed back when I picked the pig up.

Just about fell over when he said it was all for stone chips!!!

What on earth did you do to it???

Looks heaps happier than last week

Get rear spats, colour code your skirts, get clear side indicators,
STI fog light covers, dump it, take off rear spoiler and buy either
Ultrex's rims or get some 01/04 STI rims and paint em black.

Enough cosmetic suggestions for you?

Even better get an 03/05 front end conversion
