Default Couple of updated pix of the GS400....

Took a few pix of the car today after a carwash. I got some spacers for front wheels coming, so they will fit a little better the rears have 20mm spacers already installed. I will be lowering the rear as far as it can go, once i get a little help getting the damn coil overs loose.









ps. yes thats duct tape holding the front lip together.... **** broke tryin to get it on a lift for an oil change. Will be fixed soon.

I like the look! Is that a TTE/replica lip? What rims and size?
I have been looking for 5 spoke chrome rims with a slim black stripe on each spoke. However, I am now pondering going to a very dark blue (95 Porsche Midnight Blue Metalic) which straight chrome would be a better rim choice for.

Thanks!

Why? They serve their purpose and didnt cost me alot. I actually roll with my windows cracked alot of the time and like the fact that these are a little bigger. Lets just say its not on the top of my list of stuff to fix/do to the car, lol.
