Is it better or did I screw it up?

OK, for those of you who don't know, I am kind of a car nut (alright car crazy)

So I did a little upgrade to my daily driver. A lot of it you can't "see" (lowering, bigger sway bars, better brakes, and more handling stuff) but I did get some new wheels and added a "wood" interior accents. So... what do you think, Good or bad?

I started with this

The wheels look better.
The calipers are cool looking.
Nice job on the dash.
How about the rest of the car?
You lowered it, let's see it. (Now I see it, after I fixed your links)

Mike and Cuff should compare notes, (maybe they have), but I like my vintage iron too. BTW how's the new baby doing?
