I bought this beauty awhile back from optionii, I changed a few things up and i think its finally worthy of posting a couple pics so let me know what you think.
Here's a pic of how it was when i bought it

Very nice! I like the rims and stance. Not so sure about the bodykit (fitment seems pretty poor). The only thing I truly dislike are the fenders. They ruin the lines of the car and look out of place on such an elegant car. Otherwise, very nice ride.

You bastard (and I mean that in the nicest way possible), you now have one of my favorite ls's on this site. That's a bad *** car man, the only thing I would change is the front bumper to one with some different shapped fogs like 460 shapped one or some more squarish ones, that combined with some headlight garnishes a trunk lip spoiler some side jdm window visors and some exhaust tips would make this a complete car. Vip mag 'cover' worthy with those added pieces ^ ^ ^. Keep it up and u got urself a show winner there.

Very nice looking car from front and back. But the side view looks weird. Something about the wheel wells doesn't look right. Looks like the wheel wells were badly cut out and not blended well into the rest of the body.

Ahh.. fiberglass fenders make sense, was wondering how they got that side vent sculpted like that. To clarify I think the car really looks great. My concern about the fenders - it may be just the way the pics were taken. Plus I'm an old geezer and don't like the huge wheel look all that much so my opinion is suspect anyway . But the car really looks good - I love a white LS.
