Lowering springs? Body Kit? Which one??

I have an 89 maxima gxe(it's tight check out the webpage)I really like the way the wings west body kit looks because I'm tryin to give my car that sporty sleek look. Being that my car is a clear coated silver(nice paint job) I thought the body kit would bring out my car much better. Or should i just settle for some sprint springs or suspension tech?
I can't afford both(I only work part time) so which one should I get? Also I have 215/50/17 falken tires with adr reacton silver alloys
And I am not into racing my car I just want a sportier look and a better handle so what's up with some sears monroe struts??If not what should I get?? I'm a cheapo not big on moding so what are my least expensive options???

P.S Help me out guys I new to this

you should use the search function and search for lowering springs.

you SHOULD replace your struts too, but shouldn't have to worry about it messing up your tires. I didn't even know arospeed made springs for our cars.. may want to check out and see if that's correct or not on those springs.
