Nice! Will be following your build.

I'm considering coilovers too for my car. There are very mixed reviews of the Godspeed coilovers. If I go the coilover route, I'll be looking at something other than the Godspeeds. IMO, too much of a risk. It would suck to install them, have the suspension tuned only to have it start to fail within a short period of time. There are many reviews of people that liked them for a short time, but then things started failing. I may simply pick up the Eibach lowering springs and hope that it's what I'm looking for. I have other places to spend money on my car, so still very much undecided about suspension upgrades. I like the stock handling, but would just like about 1" drop, largely for aesthetics, but also for a little better cornering performance. I do have the TRD rear bar and it improved the handling characteristics.

How are the SpecD headlights at night? I've not had good luck with any of the aftermarket eBay type headlights. The OE lights in almost every case produce much better light patterns and night time visibility. Where these are projectors, maybe the lighting is good, or acceptable.

I really like your strut brace.
