Missing my CPM GS400
Guys my car has been at the bodyshop for over a week now I should get it back in another week or so. I took it in to get my RMM 3 piece spoiler and RMM rear bumper installed. While it was at the bodyshop one of the workers backed a Toyota Tundra into the front of my GS so the bodyshop has to get me a new hood & driver side Xenon headlight. The good news is I'll end up with a rock free hood, fenders and front bumper and NO MORE CHROME HEADLIGHT COVERS!!! In the mean time I've been pampering my Bimmer & obsessing over the 2nd & 3rd Gen GS photos here on the board. Here's the before pixs of my car... Just has the TTE rep front lip, RMM side skirts, staggered BBS knock offs. I also have 4" tips dropped on L Sport springs on KYB shocks.

Got the car back on 12 Jan. Had to claybar it to get rid of the overspray. Ended up getting a new hood and new driver side head lamp, new paint on the front fenders and front bumper. FYI the RMM 3 piece spoiler DOES NOT cover the holes from the OEM GS spoiler. The trunk does match the rest of the car I couldn't get a good photo of the sun hitting the trunk to show the pearl.
Thinking about the authentic version of the Explosion front bumper with round fogs.

Your car turned out really nice!!
The Explosion front bumper would complete the look, with a slight drop. Glad everything worked out for you with the new hood and light and repaint.

Thanks for the complements. I put the emblems back on because there's a noticable gap between the tail lamps and the RMM bumper. With the emblems there it distracts my eyes from the gap.
The wheels are BBS knock-offs they already came with the inner lip painted pretty close to Cinnabar 19x8.5 front & 19x9.5 rear on Falkens. No fender modds, the fenders are just really shiney due to a fresh claybar.
I'd really like to drop the car more than I have with my Lsport springs on KYB shocks but I really want to keep the car clean & OEM looking so that it doesn't look dated or like a kid driving the car.
