Mike, Thanks for the compliments man. I have maybe 1 finger gap. It is so close that you really can't tell with the eye. I like it just where it is though. Anything lower doesn't look good to me of course. I chose the Daizen springs since they are specially for Lexus and a guy in the suspension section posted his friends car that they had just put those springs on and I liked the drop and got these. I recommend these over Eibach and H&R since they only are rated at 1" drop, which isn't enough to me, although I haven't seen a car with either springs before to really elaborate on.

most others are rated lower for the front than the rear, I think Espelir is 1.6/1.4 or something like that

Freddo, Oh don't worry, that gold junk is gonna be gone soon with a chrome one also the front grill is gotta go as it has that gold emblem too. I know I can just replace the emblem, but I might as well do the whole grill and be done with it.

Kendhal - that's a sweet ride without a doubt. ya' done good for sure.
i think the emblems-off look looks good with that color without the spoiler. gives it a
classier look imo. hope to see you make the ride up for the NJ meet.

Fellas:
FYI, the Ventus tires are made by a company called Hankook Tire USA, division of Korean company, and they make very high quality tires. Without any hesitation I would say that they are at least as good as Nitto 555 Extremes.
You got a great deal in getting the $405 credit on them.
I am getting Ventus Tires on my own GS and should have them w/in a week or so.

Mucho thanks again and again for the compliments guys. It means alot when you get props from the fellas that you are rollin' a.o.k. I just may hold off on the wing until the meet to see others' rides and try and decide then. I just thought that I'd get more responses saying to add a wing.
DGOT20's, yeah my mom used to say that alot and it has stuck with me for all 35 years of my life.
Ted,
Thanks for the tire info. They indeed say made by Hankook in Korea on them. They "look" good and all, I just thought that I may have a much, much lower quality tire instead of a Nitto, Bridgestone, etc. etc. style tire.
