Beauity is in the eye of the beholder. I dont like lowering cars because on day i will go over a speed bump and there goes my bumper. just my thought.

[Nitrous_Boy]

most lower thir car to be the same height of stock though. for some reason people seem to want to put 18's and 20's on cavalier's. so when they put the 18's on they lower it so the gap doesn't look so bad.

Exactly what Nitrous said!

Lowering your car is one thing, slamming it is another. ALOT of people have their cars slammed below the best point for performance. Which on a J-body is 1.5"s. Alot of lowering kits are 1.7" which is in a way slammed. If you search around in here for posts i made with pics of my car, it is at 1.4" with the Eibach Prokit. It gets rid of a good amout of wheel gap, but give you plently leeway if your car has a kit.

So would it be a good idea to get new struts/shocks if I wanted to lower it 1.4"?

Yes

What do you think of this?

The bolt hole on your valve cover was for a mount w/ a clip for the spark plug wires. I have it on my 99' Cavy. I don't think it goes all the way through so you should be able to clean it w/o any worries!
For the rims, definately go #2!

Is it just green? I live in Indiana and I have blues on mine. Do they actually give you a ticket or just a warning?

Just warnings, but I finally decided to take them out.

generally blue and red corners are frowned upon

I like those rims too! Good Choice! What matters is that you like them anyway!

I was actually thinking of something else about that empty bolt on top of the valve cover too, I have the same thing. No idea what it's for to be honest with ya pal.
