Update on my wheels----> :)
So here's a few pics on what I have done so far... Got the centers Dechromed then sandblasted and got them coated a flat clear so its more of a matt. in the pics it looks like they are painted silver but pics can't get what they really look like in person, they look pretty clean.. as for the curbed rashes on all 4 wheels, after a long search found a couple of people talkin about how to do ---DIY--- so I did just that got the courage and borrowed my dads polisher sander had 80 grit sandpaper and just leveled the lip even, then used 120, 220, 400, etc up to 1500 grit and used my palm to actually curve the lip evenly and there you go, "curb rash begone" so now just have to get the lips rechromed and then they'll be ready to go.. on with the picss..

me too :P 
they are not polished they are chrome and I am tired of all chrome, so tried something different..
ya its sandblasted aluminum, the thing is you gotta see it in person to really get the look. isn't it always like that you can never get the look of "the real" unless in person, pictures never do it..

Sweet! Old school L-Sportlines on a new school Lexus. I like 
I was so close to picking up a set of 20" L-Sportlines, silver/polish with semi aggressive offsets, for the GS a couple years ago and I've been kicking myself in the *** for not jumping on them sooner ever since.
