The more I look at your car the more I like it. Change the rear "L" emblem to a larger one like the front! Can you take a close-up shot of the front "L" emblem?

and where'd you get the spoiler?

Looks pretty good on there. I'll stick with my "Lexus" decals.

Your car looks sweet man! Did you paint those wheels yourself? If you did was it hard to do?

Tires are OEM spec: 245/40/18. They ride so much better than when I had 20's.

I love how subtle it is. could you do me a HUGE favor and post up a video of your exhaust (assuming you're on factory muffler w/ resonator delete).

Thanks Coco-bun. I'm running Borlas with deleted resonators. I think there is a video of stock mufflers with deleted resonators floating around somewhere. I remember that it was a very subtle change in tone.

Yes, you can use the stock lugnuts and wheel locks from the 2GS.

This look makes it look aggressive and stealth.
