Your car won't get torn apart because you're lowered. You definitely sacrifice ride quality for looks and handling so it's a trade-off, you should know that going in. If you're considering lowering your car, it's highly recommended that you switch to non runflat tires as well - otherwise the ride with runflats and a lowered suspension will be extremely harsh. Speaking of harsh, I've heard from many that the ride quality of KW V1's and H&R coilovers is garbage so I would consider a different set up. Possibly the Koni coilover that HP Autowerks offers with Swift springs. You will also have some stock pieces like front sway bar end links prematurely fail because you're lowered. Mine just went after 30k miles (15k lowered) and I ordered some adjustable links, which should keep them from wearing out too quickly in the future.
Anyway, as mentioned, there are definitely times where I wish that I wasn't lowered but the added aesthetics of the lowered stance easily help that feeling.
