New modifications and detail job [many pictures]
So after selling my Supra back in 2002, I said to myself I would never mod another car again. I drove the GS for a while, but I just wasn't happy with the way it was stock. My goal was to make the GS look and handle like a stock 5-series. I wanted the "stock, yet aggressive" look. I feel that I have accomplished that pretty well with this car.
Here is a comprehensive list of modifications done so far. The only thing I want to add are a set of after-market sway bars:
Exhaust
Borla Exhaust Tips
Suspension
KYB GR-2 Shocks
L-Tuned Springs
H&R Rear 15mm Spacers
Daizen Steering Rack Bushings
Tires/Wheels
Lexus 18" G-Spider Wheels
Michelin Pilot Sport A/S
Caliper Decals
Chassis, Body
Tom's Roof Spoiler
TTE Front Lip
TTE Deck Lip Spoiler
L-Tuned Grill
RMM Sideskirts
Polarg M4 Bulbs (Parking Lights)
5-LED Reflector Bulb (License Plate)
Rear Black Pearl Emblems
Front Black Pearl Emblem
Front Black Pearl Hood Emblem
Black Pearl License Plate Frame
Tint (20% rear, 35% back, 50% front)
Interior
All-Weather Floormats
Full Interior LED conversion
OEM Leather/Wood Shift ****
Electronics
Navigation Screen Protector
I also just had the car fully detailed. I was suffering from years of accumulated swirl marks and fine scratches. The detailing was the whole package including clay-bar and color sanding. The car looks 10x better now. Now we will see how long I can keep it clean
Also I know my TTE lip is sagging. The body shop didn't do a great job putting it on. I'll be going back there to make them fix it
Some pictures taken right outside the detailing shop:

That looks great man. I can't see where the lip is sagging. We need bigger pictures That's a pretty lengthy list of mods all in one shot! Nice!
I can't wait to check it out in person. BTW, how did Tim respond when you talked to him about it sagging? I'm going there tomorrow to finally actually drop my car off.

im using 25mm h&r spacers in the rear on my 430 with the stock 17s, you can easily get away with those and it looks even better if you are going to stick with the smaller wheels... your tte lip..did the body shop double sided 3m tape that on or something?
