GS300 SD lip and wing opinions...hit me! (pics)
I was thinking about this ebay front lip and wing. On the white car it looks nasty, but I think with my color I can pull of the carbon look.
What you all think?
Front lip
Wing
My car as of 15min ago

I wouldn't. The front lip looks ricey imo. Only way maybe to pull it off is having lowered, wheels and sideskirts already installed...

The CF will blend in with the color of you car which is good, but that knockoff Greddy CF lip and huge CF wing are just way too bulky.

The CF wing is a bit bulky on white, but that wouldn't be as noticed when it blends in more with the car. IMO, the lip is too aggressive for the stance and rims. Soooo, "sure" to the spoiler, "nah" to the lip. Your color is pure sex--personally, I'd paint the lip and spoiler to match.

The front lip is not bad at all, the spoiler not so much. The CF really blends in well with the color of your car, I say for the front lip!

amen to that!!! I'm moving to Chicago but hoooly crap.
I'm low to the point where my fenders are lower than the top of my tires but my car is going to hate me if I keep it at that height.

I say go for it. Ebay cost is not too high and If the carbon look gets on your nerves get it painted.
