Thanks guys, I'm not 100% new to the gs scene. I also have a v160 swapped 600+whp first gen that's black too. Can't wait to get it back from the shop so I can do a side by side.

Cudos....GS430 rock!

I bet those wheels came from a newer GS. I dont recall any 430's having those. They like them

I have a brand new set of 20in asanti's, They are forged with a chrome lip. I was thinking about putting those on it and lowering it a little. Also a light tint is in the next couple weeks.

I have a brand new set of forged asanti's I planning on installing. I need to figure out what I'm gonna do for suspension because once I have the wheels on it will def need to be lowered a bit. It needs a light tint and im thinking about painting the grill and the chrome around the lights black. Later down the road a lip kit and yellow fogs. O and if I ever find it a full black interior swap lol
