This reminds me of the 80's when we color match everything! Don't forget to paint the windshield wipers too, LOL.

White on white is very tricky to pull off. I've seen it look very good and ive seen it look very bad. Everything needs to be perfect (drop, body-kit, wheels) in order for something like that to look good.

i know, im having a hard enough time even picking the design of the wheels it took me 4 months to decide on rims for my old g35

oh and no bodykit for me (well, maybe the oem front lip). From what ive seen so far from the aftermarket (well, bodykits) im not very impressed.

Have you thought about White on Black? Tint the windows and smoke the lights. Lower it till the rims. Too bad I have a silver car.

I say go for it! Sounds interesting. I think it would look really sexy but only if you get the right rim design to go with it. GOOD LUCK!

I agree, as long your rim designs are okay, it should look good. Have fun for the next 4 months haha.

Very flashy and you will NEED to get the wheels powdercoated the right color, as Lexus has that pearl in the paint. Flat white wheels will look odd.

Thanks for the pics. I like the new GS you showed but that 1st car is not for me. haha. I guess im just too picky. What do you guys all think of the Sevas S-7 with a white center and chrome lip? Dont have a pic of white ones but here is a pic of the rim itself. Anyone good at photochopping? lol

Default White on white

Well if you can pull it off it looks great! I had white on white on my 91 Celica Alltrac Turbo and it looked great, tons of compliments but that was then 1998-2002.

Here is a pic:
