Finally have the chance to take a pic of my GS.. ^_^
Hi CL, I've been wanting to post my car's pic here but never had the chance. I went to New Orleans last week and took some pics. This is a stock GS400 Platinum Series. I replaced the tail lights using LED ones and added OEM style rear wing. Planning on replacing the rims and springs, but still confused on which one is the best. Anybody has suggestions of 18"/19" rims with the best elegant style, how much lower should I go, and what's nice springs to go with my gs? I'm not looking something fancy. Still a student here. lol. Thanks all..

Elegance and luxury this is what lexus is all about for me and of course having a spoiler is a big no no. (at least for me)

I'm de-spoilered as well!
Car looks good -- unique color and emblems! For a drop, there's a TON of options for springs/coilovers/etc. Rims are personal taste -- just gotta look around. Being a college guy, I'd recommend checking the classifieds here to see what you can find. Good deals can be had!
As a (almost) free mod, you could get some paint stripper and strip the black paint off your grill (its chrome underneath). Or maybe a re-spray if you like the darker coloring?

for me the rear spoiler (wing) is for sporty kinda look, which for me isn't what lexus is all about. GS especially the V8 versions are fast but not in a "ricy" way!

To all OEM style wing haters : thanks for your input but when I got my baby, she didn't have wings on her. And I purchased this OEM style wings in purpose. I dunno but I just don't like the 3pc wings. Even when my gs was wingless, I hate her. Seems like a bald girl. Lol.
I am not quite agree with airestonia that this is for sporty. If the wing is huge like Evo X has, yeah it's a sporty style. But this wings make my lexy looks sweet. At least IMO..
To Str8VIP : you're not alone buddy. I love OEM style wings. I personally just don't like the 3pcs wings or wingless. Lol

To 1UZ-GS : I picked her up about 5 months ago in Houston. She was owned by an elderly couple with 6 cars in their garage. She always being taken care nicely. Even just before I bought her, the previous owner changed her brakes plus rotors, new battery, new oil, new tires, etc.
