Saneddie - Love the look of the lowered stance - Makes the car look more aggressive.

Meraki - Great jobs and kudos for coming on and thanking the customer

Quick Wash then installed the front lip, rear roof spoiler, painted the calipers red. Front lip was re-painted professionally after the first DIY job didn't hold well to getting peppered with winter debris.

Ayyy so you're the one he was talking about (What a small world!) lol... he also installed Swifts springs on a GS350 FSport (Also a CL member) before me which turned out really nice.
How are you liking the drop/springs?

I went with the ark springs and I love how much lower the car is but im stil on the 17" stock rims and it's been pretty annoying to drive lol, scraping everywhere. Luckily I'm putting on my new wheels tomorrow so we'll see how it turns out. How's the car with the swift springs?

Do you have pics of your car with the ark springs on? Also where are you scraping? I'm about to pull the trigger and purchase a set for my 350.

Here you go. Base 17" wheels and the new 19" wheels. I got the springs second hand so im not sure if they're still going to settle. As far as the scraping goes it was the front bumper. Seems to be better now with the bigger wheels though.
