Black with 22" over-complicated CHROME wheels? Are you crazy? Those wheels will take forever to clean or look absolute horrible after a short drive. The least you could have done would be ceramic brake pads. That car is a detailers nightmare.
Well my detailer comes by once a week to my job and he takes care of my car since my whole company now uses him for their cars.
Ceramic brake pads???? In my personal experience ceramic brake pads = large amounts of brake dust. I'll pass.
Minus the wheels the black sapphire pearl is already a pain in the *** to keep clean.
Yes I know the wheels may not appeal to all but its all good. If we all liked the same thing then all of our cars would look the same and then it would just be boring as hell!

Do you know what ceramic brake pads are? They are 99% dust free. You must be thinking of something else. Ceramic pads are 100% required with chrome wheels. You would be crazy to keep the stock carbon pads, which throw off all that nasty black junk.
how much inches is the drop on your car...........and did u change the factory shocks....
I believe its 1.25 or 1.5 in the front and .75 in the rear. I kep the factory shocks for now. My car only has 35K miles on it so its time to change them out here shortly.

Yes I know what ceramic pads are and yes they produce a lighter color brake dust however in MY experience on my GS400 I experienced a lot of dust albeit light which caused that annoying squeeling sound a day after I would get the car washed. Maybe they werent the greatest ceramic pads...I dont know....
If anybody has some suggestions on some good ceramic pads I'm all ears.
It sounds like you got Wal-Mart special $19.95 ceramic brake pads on your GS. You need quality.... and quality is expensive. If they are cheap, then expect problems.
