personally i like the PFF7 style wheel,. but dont rate it looks so good in gold, id go anthracite on a black car.. my STi is black too, but has standard V7 17s which look good in gold, but think youd be better in anthracite myself.. lovely looking motor tho!

Id say prodrive lowering springs and an sti splitter.
Personally i like the gold on black but if you lower it and put the splitter on first you can always do the wheels at a later date

I cant justify the $$$ for a set of CE28N TAs. Shes on 18" Gold speedline turinis at the moment
