front bumper looks better with the black lip. it looks good with the black accents you have. car doesn't look level so i would raise the rear if you're on coilovers.

Raise rear, paint door handles black, black roof overlay, paint headlights black, sell wheels. Looks decent, you are on your way!

I'd definitely raise the rear. I'd probably keep the rims. And I sure as hell would not paint the lip.

I think the grill looks nice, leave it black, raise the back, rims aren't my style, and darker tint. My 00.02

I see what you're trying to do, but raise the rear an inch and get some spacers for the rear.

You really need to fix that stance before doing anything else. However, I like the overall look that you're going for. I'd keep the white trim with the blacked-out lips.
