Default Rooftop Pics

It's been a while since I took pics on the roof of a parking garage in downtown Ft. Lauderdale. Normally, I resist taking pics without a new mod but I was bored and there aren't a whole lot of new things going on in the 3GS section. I'm sure people are getting tired of the same old replies of "looks good" we typically see. Whatever......I'm posting the pics anyway.

Some interesting banter.
I can't believe I haven't gotten the itch for new wheels. These been on for......wait a minute.....it's only been a year and 2 months. I take it back.

On to the pics:

The 5th pic of a reflection is kinda cool.

Some of us just like to change it up just to change it up.
Some get bored.
Some don't have the wheels they always dreamed of.

Me, I like to change to give the car a different look. I like these and could keep them several years if I had to. It's just what some of us do.
I kinda want to go back to chrome. They were the most durable. They have the most action by bouncing light from any angle and any light source. They are the easist to clean. Hmmm...........

Looks good bro. What are you lowered on? Ever thought of going lower, not much but it looks like you could go like another 3/4 -1 without rubbing.

I'm lowered on Tanabe NF210...same as the majority of 3GS owners.
I have considered changing to coils but probably won't. No need. I won't go lower because this is a daily and I hate any rubbing. Plus, I'm not so sure slammed is the right thing for a classy car like the GS. I'm no kid. No offense to others but I like a nice combination of sport/luxury. The mild drop satisfies my needs and preferences.

Enough said, I thought you had coils that's why I ask I didn t know whether or not you had played with it or not. Your car looks good as long as it sits how you want it that's all that matters. Btw is 30 to old to be slammed lol!!

Looks awesome! Is that really a ED kit? If so, it does fit perfect. What roof spoiler is that?

The roof spolier is Megan carbon fiber.
I have another one for sale, brand new, never been mounted or painted. No paint needed for a black car. It's black on the sides with carbon on top. looks really cool. PM me if interested.
