Default Teaser pic of my gs build (pics)
Today: Some pics. last one is where there the inspiration came from. so...just got dropped on megan ez's. new radiator, plugs and wires, oil change, sway bar links, rotors and brakes, lower ball joints

Tomorrow and the next few days: the mounted weds 20'' 107D's get put on. fenders get rolled and then a much need alignment.

Beyond: removal of the ugly bubbly purple tint. Some new fresh 2012 toyota silver paint. Red leather guts.

Enjoy and stay posted!

Nice drop. Agreed wheels are hella sunk. Make sure u align your toe or you're gonna go through tires like a mf! Good start. I'm on Megan ezs too. Don't be discouraged by the loud break in period. They will get quieter and don't ever set them to full soft.

anyone know of a good rear lip kit? having a hard time finding one. I think I'm gonna leave the front and side skirts alone.

Why not wider tires on the rear? Is it because of the drop?

good question. to be honest I've never seen anyone run anything wider than a 10 or 10.5 but it really didn't even cross my mind.

10" and 10.5" would be wheel width. I was referring to the tire width, 245. Why not a 265 or 275?

oh right...i think the 245's in the rear will be adequate. if things aren't to my liking i probably will try 265 in the future.

Default here you go
some different angles. a fender rolling shot with the louisville. heading to get an alignment today and then to the shop to get the pinstripe removed, window tint removed, dings and dents pulled and a full detail. should look like a completely different animal next pics hopefully.
