One problem I will face is my car will look lifted until aftermarket suspension is available for the GS460. I started to question if the GS430 sus will work but I received confirmation at a dealership that the spring and strut part #s for the 430 & 460 are different. So I will not risk trying 430 parts. I am on the look out but if any of y'all know of anything available please advise.

Thanks!

The first time i looked at em i noticed that too. Its crazy cuz you can barely see the design unless you look really good.

Those are sick. Cant wait to see them installed! its a shame you dont have any spings installed yet.

Post the pics anyway............


BTW.....How much>>>> $$$$$$

Nice shoes. It would be better if they were mounted on the car.
