WOW!!! a car that low will beat you senseless going down the road. there is a recall on power steering but not sure if the 04 is included in that, (hopefully so in your case). as far as coil overs or springs just google them up or here is what corksport offers

front lip, as i said before, google it up, or here is what autoEXE has to offer

no idea how much I lowered it. I bought coilovers and just set it where I though it looked good.
