HGill - i like the clear lens idea, any brand in particular you recommend?
Jolly2707 - pm'd you back, hope i was of some help

Great choices in mods. So clean, so simple, yet so sleek...
Enjoy.
Hope to see you this spring in Pitt when I come, or when you come to Maryland.
We'll chat.
BTW, I'M ONLINE AGAIN! (inside joke, y'all)

man lol- "right click/save as" 4x haha. car looks beautiful bro good job. i recently purchased a set of those same wheels in 20x8.5/20x9.5 (35mm offset front 40mm offset rear, silver wheels/polished lip) and i cant wait till the weather gets nicer to install....oh i just noticed your in NJ...im NY, you probably have another car to drive in the bad weather though too...i want to put them on but im still thinking we're gonna get hit with atleast one or two more storms before the winter season lets up and id rather not chance it....
you know though, after seeing how nice the 19s look with the same drop i have...im about 50% on the way to deciding maybe i should just sell these 20 inch Milano Plus's and stick with a set of 19's since roads suck so much around here.....im not sure theres much interest for 20s around here though.

thats right!!! Western PA, baby!
You're off to a great start, my friend. Sorry it took me so long to get to your thread.
If you're looking for exhaust and want to go with something still noticeable but more conservative, I would strongly suggest getting your hands on L-Tuned exhaust...that is if you can find one. I had that setup on my last GS and it was nice and throaty without being too obnoxious. Carson-Tuned also has a really nice system right now...talk to Steve Ganz.
PM me if you need ideas for anything else...I'm glad to help!

thanks again for all of the feedback and suggestions.
upstategs4 - i am actually in pa, but make quite a few trips to nyc & nj, the GS has been in the garage most of the winter, i've been driving the ES (fwd) due to all of the salt on the roads. can't wait till spring. i originally had 20" enkei lx-m's on the gs and felt that they were to big, but much of that was due to the style and the fact that they were chrome. i had them on the car for one day and sold them. i'm sure you'll enjoy the milano's either way, alot of guys have the 20" 5 star style wheel and they look great
kevings - glad to see you surfing again! appreciate the comments, i will be in touch soon.
ebruce2 - i caught a sound clip of the l-tuned, i was pleased, but as you mentioned it will probably be pretty hard to find at this stage. i'll check into the carson system, i put a call into steve ganz today on some other parts, so i'll check with him when he gets back to me.

thanks for the reinforcement man- i will more than likely keep them unless i get a decent offer. they are still brand new in the box without tires so they would be easy to ship...im just not sure anymore...the 19s look real good on your car and i dont know if theres a point in dealing with the 20s and the tires, etc...
