Default Pics of my new Greddy lip and progressive shots of my GS4

here's some shots of my ever-so-slowly changing GS4

stock when i first bought it, except i was lucky it already had the RMM grill and was tinted all around


summer look with 18" gunmetals, clear corners, smoked tails, and carbon fiber pillars and license garnish


winter look (i finally got my Greddy lip on even though so late in the season), with the sc430 plates i picked up on ebay for $100 bucks, also wearing michelin alpins.

Looks ok, I would take off the Plates off the SC430 wheels though...it would look a whole lot better

The summer look is always going to be nicer than the winter look when your in a snow region so I understand the change. I really like the gunmetal with the silver, I do think that if you had the mesh from the rm grill painted silver it would a lot better.

ya i was going to paint the grill silver, but since its already late in the season, i figure i'd leave that til next year...and i was going to get the sc430 5 star wheel covers, which IMO look much better, but i changed my mind since its only for winter anyway (and they were only $100). the 5 star wheel covers would double the price of my winter rims hehe.

Summer look is great but the winter look IMO doesn't sit right with me... The wheels and lip don't flow well together... Thats just me..... Great car though...

Is that stock height? If so, it doesnt look half bad surprisingly, but i agree tmf2004, side skirts would help the lip look more connected to the car. keep up the good work
