AWDfitted (albert), he is a really outgoing guy, cool and chill. he does a good job.

mine was the first 3gs that he had done, and mine was just a half shave and roll. there are some dimples as he and i was aware it would happen from the fender liner.

he recommend a shave for lexus fender. unless other places does a better job on how to deal with this lexus.

siiiiiiiiiiiiiiiick!

is it weird to say that i like seeing sexy rides like this with rock chips on the bumpers and little imperfections?? i love knowing that headturning rides like nGeee's are out being used in the real world and not tucked away just for shows and meets.

Wow, I'm surprised. In the pics the set-up doesn't look that aggressive. I guess being lowered like that tucks the wheels more.

Looks pretty good.

yeah, lowering will make it tuck in more, i was thinking of lowering it more, but im expected to tuck in more, i might leave the height alone as is, but who knows.

not only that, the back is fine, just the front i didnt expect it will pull that much when albert roll the fender, usually the front will pull more naturally just from rolling it.

as for what xtreme626(henry) said, lower and spacers, that might be next option, if so i will post more about it. but as in right now, im satisfy. =D haha

I'm not a fan of slamming cars like the GS, not a fan of rolling or cutting fenders either. Especially just to force aggressive offset wheels to fit. Slamming a daily driver is just plain illogical. With that being said, I really enjoy watching you guys do it. The name of the game is doing your own thing.
