Yeah, only one problem. I don't have the engine in the car right now. It's a bit heavy to push it up and down my driveway(I've had to do it once...it was not fun lol). Not sure if you've ever had to push a GS before. But it is ONE HEAVY COW!! And then try doing it on an incline, it's still hard to push even with 2 other people helping

Yeah I cut the lip off the fenders. I might have to use a belt sander to shave the lip completely flat. We will see though if that is necessary or not for these rims once I hit the road.
