Props on the ride. I love the rims!

Do I know this crowd or what? Everyone wants a dropped car here.

Nice combo. Ilike the mesh wheels. Nice and simple.
As for the HU, I can answer some questions for him. great peice. It does not have navi built in, you eithe rhave to buy a blackbird or their old nve navi to add to this HU. It has the pulse touch, which is a huggggge feature. The display is nice and the face fo the radio is simple. Overall a very nice peice although the navi built in would be a huge plus.

Gs,
I wouldnt attempt to remove that factory navi. One, it is nice looking, two it has all the controls for everything within the unit. At least on my 03 gs it does. I left the factory navi in wit hthe levinson system and added the Jl Audio cleansweep product. Tha allowed me to add my jl speakers and amps with the facotry headunit. The cleansweep is sick, once I get the speaker summing device it will sound like an aftermarket system without changing the headunit. Awesome device.
If you get a gs without factory navi then the playing feild is wide open. I did a custom setup with the heat controls under a flush mounted screen (check out my gallery). I also had a double din unit installed keeping the heater controls above the headunit. So if you get the car without factory navi then you can do so much, if you get the facotry navi try the JL Audio cleansweep.

Yes a drop will be coming in the future. The TTE lip is in pretty bad shape right now. The glue isn't sticking too well now so it's starting to sag. The whole bumper is in real need of new paint. There's about a thousand little rock chips on it (can't really see it in the pics). I don't know why the paint is chipping so easily but I'm guessing it was a poorly done job. I will get the lip redone when the bumper is getting repainted.

Looks really good. I like the gold as well. I have the same color. I had my front end repainted and mine chipped after 4 months, should've had the clear film installed.
