Can't decide.. Lower or Lighting?

Hey everyone, I'm having trouble on deciding what I want to do next. I want to lower my car as well as add custom eagle eye headlights that Oracle will help me make. I can only do one right now and I've been leaning towards the headlights right now because they will do a lot cosmetically. Any ideas or suggestions?

Thanks!

Here are what the headlights will look like:

I'd lower it. You can't see how cool you're lights look with the car off siting in a parking lot. Give it the aggressive stance before you start messing with the lights.

I would do the lighting and get RGB halos. Then you have the choice of what color you run with. Lowering it gives it a mean stance but I'm a lighting person.

So you wouldn't do the eagle eyes? And what RGB halos would you recommend?

Both are WIN. Of course lighting is the most popular of the two.

If/ when you do lower it, pick up at least a rear sway bar to tighten it up. Makes all the difference.

Good luck and let us know when you're ready for The Awesome.

If you want something custom get the Eagle Eyes but let them install the RGB halos behind them.

Basically it just lets you choose what color you want, I'm sure you've seen the videos on here.

Lowering it is awesome, no doubt, but if you want something EVERYONE will drool over get the lighting. I've seriously had people photo my car in their rearview mirror while driving down the interstate, lean out the window to take pics, and pretty much anywhere I go it turns heads.

Imagine this: Your driving down the road and pass two Camaros. One has been lowered and one has green halos on. Which do you notice first?

JMHO....oh and then save up and lower it afterwards.

I think this should settle the debate lol

He's got a great point....some cars that are lowered, hardly look any different unless they have 22's attached to em.

Southwest Speed Lighting to the Rescue! LOL

All kinds of ways you can go....
