You should bolt on some 20mm and 25mm spacers. Looks good with the OEM 17's.

Hey thanks Pete. Yeah it seems like ages since I last posted a pic of the car on the forums. The pic in my sig is old and the car has gone through several changes since that pic was taken.

Looks like I cannot multi-quote with this app. It's actually the stock exhaust with Borla tips. I removed the mufflers and did some wet sanding and polishing to get them to look that way. I'm extremely picky with exhausts and the only one that interest me would be the Tanabe Medallion. I'm pretty much done modding the car but a Tanabe exhaust would be the last mod that I would do.

Last few pics before mine goes into hibernation, the exhaust tips will be extended next spring so they're not sunken in the bumper.





And as she sat today, kinda sad.

Thanks! My vision has been a car that doesn't scream highly modded, you'd never know how much work has been done unless it was sitting next to a stock GS. Taken me over 5 years but I'm getting close.

Wheels are pretty conservative, 20x8.5 and 9.5 +44 all around, 15 mm spacers. Tires are 225/35 and 275/30.
