It looks like he or she has a Greddy front spoiler, L-sportline side skirts, and a stock rear bumper. Seems pretty clean looking with comparison to some of the high dollar kits and their not knock off parts. I am still deciding...

Cool, I live in Michigan, so I rarely see any hooked up gs3/4/430. I am never the greatest at deciding on these things, especially when running my current 16s. I plan on buying a set of blitz technospeeds or weds erm in 19s now instead of a full kit which I was considering since my car should be in the shop by now. This is obviously a cheaper alternate to setting my car off...etc

Very nice car. I wonder what that grill is. I want to do some "mild" cosmetic upgrades to the Lexus, nothing fancy, because it's going to be purely a daily driver and I am sure my parents won't allow another garage dust collector in the house. We already have the Bimmer for that hehehehe.

Actually, I've seen the car in person and I think those wheels are Altstadt's of some sort....

jtanoyo1: That is the RMM (Rod Millen Motorsports) grill.

I like it!

Simple yet stylish.

Some of the GS bodykits can take away from the elegant design of the GS.

Any one know what the size of the rims are and the tire specs?

Also it looks like the car has been slightly dropped. Is this my imagination, if not what spring set was used?

Thanks for info.
