Factory Sun Roof...... mmmmm Nice.........

I would suggest that you lower it before you get wheels.

Unless your going to lower and get wheels at the same time.......

great car to start of with!
one other suggestion, if you can afford it, replace the headlight glass, it will make it look so much better!
