Default Decided to take some updated pics!

Some of you may remember how the car looked with the 99 light, non HIDs, regular fogs, and the ugly 400 badge (on my 300). We'll I change the back light to 01+, GS430 bowls & accessories with after market HID bulbs and balasts, yellow fogs, debadge both the Lexus and GS400 badge off the back. I finally decided to take some updated pics today after a nice car wash.

Thanks! May lower it just a tad bit more after I get the correct tire size up front to help fill in the gap, but definately no tint. I personally don't like tint. I think cars look cleaner and sexier without it. Tint just takes away from the sexiness I think, with the exception of black cars.

In my opinion just update the exhaust tips and you are good to go. I prefer tint myself but white cars seem to look real nice without it. Nice work, your ride looks great.

Nice, I remember liking your car before and it's looking great now! A chrome trunk bar and chrome door handles (I've always loved them on white) and exhaust or tips would be nice additions. I just did the '01 tails on mine as well, they look good.

Hahaha..... I remember when you first bought it. Debadging it is a good alternative rather than purchase a new GS300 emblem. The car looks clean.
