Default Pics of a 3GS from Dub Show Charlotte, Amp Mobile booth, air runner susp, kit, etc

Looked very nice. Owner wasn't there at the show (or at least the guys in the Amp mobile booth didn't know who she/he was), so I couldn't ask pics and I'm only going by the stickers on the windows what some of the mods were.

That Flint Mica GS430 w/the Rando Kit has been all over the place. It was at SEMA last year and travels with the Red IS350 in the DUB show circuit. I believe that car originated from here in SoCal.

I saw it at the NY Auto Show also (in the tent area outside). IMHO it's a bit
over the top, but it definitely draws attention.

I love the inerior on the Flint Mica one. The dark suede on the seats and doors, the piping. Very nice addition. Makes the interior a bit sportier, but also still luxury looking.

Im not feeling the Air Runner's or the 22's on the 3GS. IMO, it takes away from the car.

Agreed, I would even say it ruins the whole point of trying to show the car off. It just looks wrong, period.

Default 22's

I disagree I have the same flint mica gray with 22's and I think the rims make the car. As soon as i put the rims on the car people instantly started asking me how i liked the car.
