Here's mine! Picked up last year.
Lowered on Tanabe springs, intake, catback exhaust and some aesthetic mods(lights, roof spoiler, ect)
Coming this summer I will be picking up BC coilovers she's too low right now and of course some wheels!

If you only want to lower the fronts, and for such a small amount, just get some lowered springs. If you want a performance increase or your shocks are currently no good, then consider coilovers.

As you read the thread you will find that in lowering the front you risk tearing the CV boots which then leads to grinding the joints to dust. So take note and follow the guidance.
Pictures are taken from this past 2019 summer I was straight pipe from the test pipes here. I hit a raised manhole cover and it broke my exhaust at the ypipe. I couldn't avoid it due to heavy traffic on the right and a curb to my left Black Obsidian is hard to keep clean
My 1st gen X on oem 17s and chopped springs (don't do it your back will hate you) but it handles and stops better, no 4x4 wheel gap either. My clearance is about 2-3 inches to the bottom of the side skirt, to the bottom of the exhaust it's a little less. I have a off brand cai, 1/2 plenum spacer, test pipes, vhr racing ypipe w/ no heat shield, and a 2.5" muffler delete into a 2.7" single exhaust tip. I also have full led lighting interior, license plate, reverse light. 8000k HID Xenon headlights. Limo 5 percent tint on the rear and 50 tint on the front. blacked out side markers and front grill. Square 225/50r17 Hankook Ventus Noble1 S2 tires. The car sounds deep especially around 2-4k. It gets louder and less deep at higher rpms but absolutely no rasp. Some small pops after letting off every now and then. My build was a budget build because I didn't want to spend on mods that were worth more than my car. Just wanted it to look, sound, turn and pull better while still looking like a sleeper
