1) Venting the hood
2) BBK
3) Molded rear trunk spoiler
4) TV in the rear seat compartment

Thank you for the kind words everyone. I learned a lot from you all over the past years of being a member on CL.

Futura BBK added last week for SF Auto Salon. Standard set-up for our LS. Front: Super 8 with 405 rotor Rear: Super 6 with 380 rotor. Stopping power has improve dramatically. I am still trying to adjust to how I apply my brakes now.

BTW: Work wheels are for sale. It will be posted in the Classified by today. Wheels are only 4 months old.

Wheels are 21x10.5 +30 Front and 21x10.5 +25 REAR. BBK are not similar to OEM, the thickness is similar but the Futura height is much larger.

Nice, but I noticed you are running same size just different offsets? was that for looks, BBK accommodations or both?

CJITTY, my VIP Modular setup was a different size. Front was 9.5 +20 and Rear was 11 +25. (Offset might be off by a few +/- 2 but very close to what is stated) BBK fit with no issue.

That was to keep the tire cost down. Different offset gives it the look of staggered but the tires are cheaper bought in 4s. I'm going to go with 21x10.5 too front and rear but slightly more aggressive in the rear for me. Nat likes to drive low and those offsets will allow him to do that.
