Default llittle refresh of my gs300

i recently refinish my wheels and installed a set of BC BR coilovers bought from member Ahmedootie on here. I was super excited to finally lower my lexus this weekend, soo tired of seeing the huge wheel gap it had. here are the results.












Very happy with the ride quality, it previously had 235,000 mile struts that rode "ok" haha. I'm gonna make some adjustments to the ride height later this week because i do daily drive this car. later after the coilover install i cruised with my buddy (he just completed his is300 with built 2jzge, borg warner s300 turbo, and r154 5 spd swap) and met up with some other lexus cars. My sister and her bf also brought out their new (to them) ISF.

my buddies car




my sisters ISF


other pics




hope you enjoyed!

If those are 18's, I'm stoked that I just ordered 18's for my car. They look awesome.

looks great man.
from the front lip to the 01+ Tails. The dark with your blue is a good contrast together.
Black leather would really pull that combo together.
doesnt it feel great finally getttin it down to ground level?
Hope to see you round the Copa man.

I'm loving the color. If I ever got into an accident where my insurance would paint my entire car, I would go with Midnight Indigo Pearl (8J5). It looks like you're all doing it right out there. Keep up the great work!
