Pics look great, it figures too, my H&R's will be installed on Monday I was just discussing purchasing the Teins with Slooooooow and Smitty about a week ago. I couldn't find enough to confirm good fitment, and remembering that this is the wife's daily driver, it was decided that the H&R's would be a better idea for now. Oh well, we'll see how they turn out. Can't wait to see daytime pics

I had to work all day saturday which turned out to be a 14.5hr saturday - part of the responsibility of being a computer guy I suppose so no chance to wash the car but even though it was raining today I decided to wash it and then take some pics. I do find that washing the car in the rain makes it a very quick process and it turns out pretty good too!

Any ways, I had a few requests to post up some pics of the car during the day so here they are.

The stance looks so good. I am wondering if I should do that to my car...seems costly right now. I'm going to find some rims first.

Can't wait to see it repainted. Did you go with the pearl white monotone?

If it helps at all, we have an IS350 (CL handle "TLindeman"; I hope he doesn't mind me using this beautiful picture) at our weekly meets that's Starfire White and folks just RAVE about it:
