Default Antique Bronze 99 GS300

Wsup fellas, heres a little of what I've been building and i hope you guys like it.

I got this Gs300 last July and heres some progress to what i've done and put on her.

This is when I pick her up, I honestly thought I got a really good deal.
I got it for 6K with 131,XXX miles with near perfect interior (no fades, or rips) with all maintenance (big and small) up to date.

I had her on some G37 wheels for a bit and I had some lowering springs before I recently got BC coils.

Heres a pic with her on coils and the wheels.

Around early March it got backed into and basically got free money and a new paint job for the front end.
Luckily, no frame damage or leaks when it got backed into..


I had a lip that I was about to install and it was perfect timing to get it on with a color match since it was gonna be at the shop

Here's a before and after pic.

I also put some 7 series wheels on that I've been meaning to put on.
I'm running 225/35 for the fronts and 235/35 in the rears with 25mm adapters.

At first I thought it wasn't gonna work cause i didn't have any fender mods but after pulling and rolling all fenders and a camber kit for the front it turned out great. I maxed out all around for the camber.

I wanted to go for an aggressive look, this is also my daily driver.

This is probably how she's gonna be look like for a bit until I decide on what else I should do.

I was thinking about putting on a roof spoiler but i haven't decided yet.

it looks great, i love the BMW wheels on our cars. to a non-car person it looks like a factory wheel. The shot where you're parked by the big redwoods really shows the colour nicely.

Thanks y'all.
I'm running -4.5 for the rears and -6 for the fronts. I need to get a camber kit in the back to match my fronts.
