I don't see having your mirrors black really doing too much.

kyle harty thanks for the compliment.

i would help you out with a photoshop but i suck at it and i dont have it at work.. someone can use my car for photoshop reference if need be since it already has the black roof.. they just need to do the mirrors.

^I wanna paint my headlights black, but then again I feel like the GS headlights arent agressive enough to paint black, like the IS's.

WHOA! mr kenji, your ride is . . . siiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiick!!!! I got a GS400 that um gonna throw TEIN CS coilovers with front and rear strut bars. Exhaust: trying to figure which smog-compliant setup has the most hp. - any suggestions? Afterwards, um gonna put it in the paint and body shop . . . Pearl White. How do you think it would look with a black roof (silly question)? Can you post pics viewing the whole car from the top, PLEASE??

no i wasnt really interested in painting them black.. i have been looking into possibly doing or getting a retrofitted Q45 headlights..



al-ex-us - sorry man i dont think i have any pictures from the top view. but pending on certain mods you have the black roof fits the car well.. with dark tint or wind visors or things.. its a nice compliment color.. a lot of people dont even realize it doesnt come stock like that

theres a member on here i cant think of his name, maybe someone can help. Hes from norcal. His gs is white with a black roof and black rims with a silver lip. It looks pretty dope. If anyone else can think of his name and get a pic it would be easy to get a better idea.
