Yeah... Real ones have better quality materials. Meaning if you hit something it will get less screwed up. My buddy has a Celica Veilside. Hit a cat and had a small chip, cheap fix. Another cheapo buddy of mine had a poorly made one. Hit an opposum and lost half the bumper. Don't go half ass, especially on exterior parts.

 

How about some seats? That is next on my list. If you want some "go" get the Airram and the BBTB, as said before, it will clean up the engine bay.

 

Get some springs. They are not expensive, with your stock Shocks (in case you don't feel the need to improve that) your ride wont be harsh, but IMO our suspension is the weakest point of our cars. Eibachs are soft, H&R's a little firmer. After that, definitely BBTB/IM Combo, if you have the money, the AirRam and a shiney TB are the way to go.

 

Yeah the shocks and springs are definatly a show and go piece. The EiBach springs/struts together are more of a performance setup than a lot of the others so you wont get a huge drop. If you are looking at a larger drop there are always the quest complete coilovers that kSpec carries.
