Im not a fan of black with polished lip. I could get them painted. The 1st thing im doing is wet sanding the foggy headlights, hope that cleans them up.

Love the GS, I myself just bought a 1st Gen from my buddy, full 2JZGTE-swap, GT45R big single, ect ect, (see garage)
But I am prompted to ask:
What were you thinking with the MR2!? >.< To each his own, I guess! :P
Keep us posted on the GS, good sir!

Looks pretty good,get the spacers and you would be good. Love what you did to the rear. Now why did you do that to the MR2?

That already looks sick with those rims man, just throw spacers all around. Looks like 10mm in front and 15 or 20mm will do in the rear.
