Congrats! Looks really badass. I've never seen the analog clock illuminated at night, so that's pretty sweet to see.

welcome to the club. there are a few minor things you're going to notice. try pushing the piece(that's attached to the pillar, pinch and push down) that adjusts the height of the SB all the way down. it worked for me, then turn the buckle part so that it's flat against the side of the seat.

These are so light as someone told me, you can hardly see them, these are the LED's on the door under the aluminum.

From the looks of the back shot... Your car has a big butt.

Yeah, we have to be careful how we shoot these supermodels... especially when they are the Kim Kardashian and J-Lo of the automotive set. Syd's is all in black, so it is slimming, but LP doesn't hide the girth.

Lol yeah it doesn't show as much in black but the LP shows it off. I'm going to my guy on Saturday to see what he can find out about lowering this baby.

In any case, I hope you found this forum helpful in navigating you through your decision. Based on my 11 months with my GS F Sport, you won't be sorry.

You got me again. I had to think twice what the heck RS is. OK, Remote Starter. The funny thing is I read the instructions on his card and did that to my car last night. It didn't start.

OP: Don't wait until it's too dark to take the pictures. Take it when it just gets dark (twilight). I find it gives me better shot that way. Also I usually on my knees when I take pictures of the GS. Try to keep your eye level to that of the car. That way you can avoid the big butts. That's one good looking GS there. I want the F bumper so bad.
