Lowering Mini GP?

Hey there,
I was wondering about different mods I could do to my mini gp when it arrives. I don't really want to change the appearance of the car (body wise) as i feel the whole point of the car is that its part of a limited identical number but....

what i'm looking at doing....
1. Lowering the suspention... (whats the best method and the best service or company to use to do this?)
2. Sound System: I want a really beefy sub and some decent speakers in the car, what would be the best ones to look at?

any other suggestions?

cheers, sy.

adding a beefy sub will also add a considerable amount of weight along with a box.... this is why I am still pondering fitting mine in my S

An ICE setup will add substancial weight to the car, which is against the point of the GP anyay.
