you can't powdercoat the trim because it's plastic. just get some dye or trim paint. i painted my side skirts because they were gray and faded, after i painted them, they looked like new.

lol, you have coilovers, and they're Ground Controls (i believe, i can't really see the pic),all you need is new struts. your suspension can be lowered by moving the perches to a lower position. as for the wheels, don't always go for the black rims with a polished lip like everyone is doing now. if you're going with the si blue, i say get some nice used bronze volks or something.

a nice 6 spoke design is the rota grid (copy of volk te37's). and i believe you are WAY off on the weight of the wheels, 1.2 kilos is only like 3 lbs. or something.

11.3 pounds is very light, just don't get big ace rims, i think 15's will do nicely

not necessarily, faster acceleration really depends on weight and diameter. smaller and lighter = good performance
larger and heavier = better highway driving
