Default My new GS with Vossen wheels

I'm new to the forum, this is my 2013 GS350. I just added 20" Vossen wheels, blacked out the tailights and rear emblems, hard wired Escort radar, and plasti dipped the bront bumper area.
It bugged me that all the accent lights through out the car are bright leds except for the courtesy lights under the exterior side view mirrors, so I changed those out to leds also.

Let me know what you guys think.

Sorry, im trying to upload the pics but it keeps failing. Is there another way to upload?

THIS! Might be worth a new thread to share some details on this install.

The radar wire is run down along between the windshield and dash and along the bottom of the a-pillar. The side panel to the left of the steering wheel pops out and the wire can be run right to the fuse panel under the driver kick panel.

The front bumper is factory non f sport.

I would complete the plasti-dip on the front bumper by getting rid of the rest of the chrome, that is bad part. Also why did you run the wire like that on the radar detector. You should have mounted it to the rear view mirror and hard wired it there where the wire and unit are out of the way. That is what I did with my V1.

The escort radars also have a mute control that has to be mounted somewhere too. I just preferred itby the bottom of the wwindshield as opposed to the top.
