Niiice!!! How's your turning ability? I'm a tad bit higher than you and I rub on sharp turns. Still looking for a solution to that.

Looks nice! How was the fitment of the tte rep lip? Wish I could go that low on my car but the roads here are garbage, but if I was back in Japan I wouldn't have any issues about slamming it like that!

For ment was good, I was stupid and trimmed more than what was needed, but fitment was good. Fr 98 shipped I wasn't complaining, really wish I was back on 18's to go lower again

LOL... you didn't see what I did to my TTE lip? Don't swap since the GS/Aristo's are rare in those part and just cope. You'll be happier in the end, trust me

OP, I LOVE your car bro... simple but gorgeous at the same time. Lovely.
