Yes, I rolled and slightly pulled the fender a little bit. The fender to bumper mount was the biggest PITA. I actually had to do away with the original fender to bumper mount, trimmed the sheet metal and made new mounting points.

Is that the tanabe medallion touring exhaust, if so how does it sound on the freeway and the street do you hear it a lot in the cabin when driving? Planning to get one myself but unsure because I don't want it to be super loud.

It's the Lexus f-sport exhaust, awesome if you ask me! Haha, it's loud when you want it to be, has an awesome growl outside of the car

Looks like more guys are going for the smaller wheels these days. I guess its to make the car lower and get more aggressive fitment.
Car looks hot.

I have a tanabe exhaust on my 06' GS430 and it sounds great. can barely hear it in the car, but gives the car a nice sound at idle and during highway acceleration, passing etc
