Cool Ideas new white on black w204 ??

hello there to everyone. I picked up my white on black '10 w204. I need ideas everything from rims to lights. Im looking for the european luxurious look, not too sporty.
*First question i have is do u guys think dropped on 20" is too much ?

*The spoiler's (roof and trunk), CF, white, black, or B&W ?
Same question ^^ with the front lip and the diffuser.

*Also ideas on the quad exhaust, not looking for performance nor quality (its a lease so dont need it too last more than 2 years), just for lowest $$. Even if i have to custom with ur ideas.
What springs would u use to tuck in nicely either the 19's or the 20's. ?

*Whats led's are the best and brightest for the eyelids, license plate, and reverse light.

*What HID's ? im looking for the white going to blue like on newer the aston martins. What "K" is that.

Thanks ppl !

20s" .. you will want to consider the road conditions on where you primarily drive. you don't want to keep buying new tires every other pot hole.

spoiler color... why don't you try photoshop and see how it looks?

20''s look a lil funky on our car, 19''s are just right along with H&R super sport springs, will leave you with a tucked look.

Im running Philips crystal vision 4300k lights for nice bright white, similar to stock bi-xenon. For license plate LED's go for polarg you can find them on e-bay. Do a search here as well for pics.

Carbon Fiber spoiler looks clean on white.

If you want a nice growl out of your exhaust get an X-pipe witch replaces the resonator.

I would suggest the LEDs from JBSPEED for the rear license plates instead of Polargs. Polargs aren't bright enough from my opinion. Not sure about HIDs but I'm Running Diamond Vision on both my lows and fogs.

I'm running the 19" Euro 63RS's with the super sports and the front fenders need to be rolled...FYI

What size are your rims? 19x? and the offset, there should be no need to modify your fenders unless you have low offset.
