I like the 5-spoke rims. Why move from 19" to 18"? 19" looks great on your GS.

Thumbs up
I like your after pic better. I think your GS would look better with your 19's rather than the gold 18', but great looking car anyways!

Personally, I like the "after" clear side markers, and front spoiler.....Gold rims not my cup of tea. Put the "before" rims back on.

Just my 2 cents.

Btw...r u going to PimpluxGS' mini meet tomorrow night at Pearl City Longs @ 8pm?

The gold rims might go good with a blue GS, but definitely not a white one.

Looks Great. That kit looks good and the wheels set it off . Is that the rear bumper that came with that?

The first set of Works look better. Gold not really my cup of tea, but like someone said earlier gunmetal would look pretty sweet. What spoiler is that in the after pics?

I like the 'before' much better, especially the second with the clear marker light. I've always been a big fan of the DIY rear bumper you've got, but would prefer to see it with the Equips and the factory spoiler. I've never liked the newer spoiler style (sorry) - remindes me of the 1970's/early 80's Camaro/Firebird spoiler.
