Hi Will.
Have a good look round peoples blogs and other threads on here, get an idea for what's popular / easy, and most importantly decide what YOU want the car to be. Modifying a car is about making it personal to you, whether that's making it prettier, lower, faster, scene-ier, whatever. Make a sensible plan and do the jobs one at a time, then you won't spend time faffing about on stuff you don't like or need to re-do later.

Stickers, it'll look sick mate!
You're going to get chalk & cheese responses.....
IMO a K11 looks good with a nice set of wheels and, at most, a 50mm drop. I find K11s most appealing to the eye with a 'less is more' approach. Some of the most aesthetically pleasing K11's I have personally seen have been those with simple clean lines, minimal stickers and as little bolted on as possible.
However, we're all different so do what you want.....it's your motor
