nice let me know what springs you go with and where you got them im still looking for the best deal on good springs. i found some good single gsc springs for 230 and duals for 300 from ets but im still looking im leaning towards dual for higher revving because i eventually want to upgrade the turbo with the hta gt35r

It's not too much more for duals and if your plans to rev the **** out of it (mean this in a good way ), go with the duals.

I'm still running stock valvesprings, but I only have HKS 272's.

I haven't seen the Evo your talking about either. Mine's silver. That color sounds interesting though.

The only good body shop around here, that I've seen so far, is Gilson Auto Body. They do a lot of BMW's and actually have a turbo M3 painted a custom cherry red color in their showroom.
