What route should i take to lower it? springs or sit it on coilovers? What are your thoughts on black grill & black headlight housings?

Look around for a used exhaust...here and ebay are your friends. I did the muffler delete for $70 when I 1st got my car until I figured out which exhaust I wanted and LOVED the sound! A little high drone at times inside the cabin, but sounded diiiiirrrtttyyy so if your ok with that then I say go for it. If you can afford coilovers then thats def the route as you can adjust accordingly. Im currently on eibach and love the look/drop/feel and also helped I found a set brand new for $185. As for grille...I say either get it painted/wrapped prfessionally for best results. best of luck

Did you get aftermarket tips or keep factory tips? I did the muffler delete on my E39 M5 and LOOVVEEDD IT! Im 23 young buck with a nitrous hayabusa, little bit of drone doesnt scare me away from a cheap mod Any pictures of your muffler delete? How much lower did the eibach springs make your car?

Take a look at my garage link, got a carbon wrapped grill & rear valance, painted headlights & taillights and black window trim, so those are my thoughts on that lol
Here's a couple links for DIY stuff you might like~

The Top Speed exhaust is a nice sound and looks nice if you get the good rolled/beveled tips and they've got them right now for about $450. I'd go coilovers for a drop. Might want to look into the 19" coupe wheels, you can often find them in the marketplace for around $1k w/ tires, about the best looking Infiniti wheel setup IMO.

I had them weld the oem tips back on to keep that oem look w/a not so oem sound love the drop...1.2 in the front and 1.5 in the rear. looks real good imo if your not wanting to spend $800-1k on coils.

I don't care for them, not even a little bit. Polished spokes with a black rim and lip... it just looks awkward, like an unspectacular optical illusion. Sorry.

Probably look better the other way around w/ the black spokes and polished lip/rim, but nice wheels nonetheless. Gunmetal might look better if you paint the whole wheel, might be worth considering. Thanks for the pics.
