What ever floats your boat. Just don't put no damn 3 foot wing on it and then post pictures or else I'll rate you a 1. ;)

Seeing as it's your first mod I assume you're still driving stock tires. Stock tires are usually made with noise and gas mileage in mind. For about $50 to $100 more than you spent on those headlights you could have gotten some nice tires.
When I do spend money next on my car, these are going on my car.
I had Firestone SH30 version of these tires on my last car. These tires with the UNI-T are amazing. Turns an ordinary car into something that handles nice.

What about the Khumho ESTACA712 (or is that the SUPRA 712)? I heard those are great tires, great price, and amazing wet performance.

How much Horse Power do those add? 3-4?

And how much time did it trim of your 1/4 mile time?
