Default Dynamic Duo---More pics added pg 2

Just a few pics of the 2 cars. Still didn't use the tripod so these aren't my best...plus scenery isn't much but wanted a few shots after cleaning them this morning.

Pics are kinda boring but it's harder to accept hearing it from a noob.

Let's add a little drama.
The black one is a GS300. At my wife's request I put on a faux shark fin antannae. I didn't take a closer pic because I didn't want to put ant attention on it. Not sure I like being a poser. But wifey likes it. Is this being a poser? Those of us with 350 probably care less about having it. Serves no purpose for me so why not put one on the 300?

Now the thread is not so boring.

Looks good Reggie! I like the last picture, the wheels are perfectly aligned on the 350.

I have no idea what your talking about in referrence to the shark fin and if I recall correctly in your opinion, you didn t like how my car looked either but thats cool, you have a different style than me. I like bigger wheels not the donk look but 22s tucking and flush fitment i had fun grinding my bumper bracket and shaving the fenders I brought my car home from the dealer 2 1/2 years ago and before i drove it anywhere i had 22s and was cutting the plastic out of the wheel wells before i had 20 miles on it but thats just me I understand these are fairly expensive car and not everyone is into cutting and straining the car to make it look how they want but don t critisize is if you can t take it back your just a little more plain jane than my taste no hard feelings peace!

My feelings aren't hurt.
You think the cars are boring because the wheels are smaller than what you like? So you tried to come back at me for criticizing your car on deuce-deuces? Don't sweat it dude. Everyone will never like everything.
I still don't like 22's on a GS. Not just your car. It isn't personal. I've told strangers to their face I didn't like it. Lot's of guys in south Florida have no taste. Dope dealers showing off...stuff like that.
I've seen only 1 GS on 22's I kinda liked. In Heavey Hitters magazine. Job Design kit (I think), lowered with conservative enough offsets to tuck the wheels. You kit and lower your car you will probably get a few more compliments.
Until then, if you wanna return criticisms, go ahead. But it isn't personal. You're probably a cool guy. You do drive a Lexus and you like mods. You're part of the family.

Nice pair of cars Reggie. I agree with 20s being just the right size. I think 22s are too big for the gs.

SOme people do think the black one looks more like me but after they see my GFM with more expensive wheels the association is clearer.
Heck, they are both mine and I enjoy both.
