Default Nice set up

What size and offset are those rims? I have my black rims on order and can't wait to put them on.

Your car look sweet

I also have DF210 on my GS400 and I also installed l-tuned shocks. I'm pretty impress on the ride quality of the springs almost same as stock. I had mine installed last November and now it is even lower because the springs already settled. The ride quality is still the same though.

Those HP's look pretty good in black. Nice drop. Nice car. Looks good but a kit would take it to another level.
