Default My 2010 build, 6th set of wheels

People have been following my builds. but this is the last one for the Gs. to many times for the show scene I have changed up the look. Esp after gaining info on the fitment too.


Since the last feature from fatlace.com/hellaflush

http://fatlace.com/hellaflush/theflu...out-gs400.html


I can say Its an overall change,



But I will see everyone at Norcals weakfest 2010 (February time frame), car should be ready by then .

Locals have seen the change and some at the local bbqs ect. but for the final look, some have heard but hope to surprise you guys.


Keep ya posted :innoutrofl2:

_______ updated________

Starts with a Kazz grill I picked up at the last meet and the 5zigen Mega Exhaust



Updated,
Cats out of the Bag.... I showed some people who attended at Auto Fashion Meet in November

SSR Agle Strusse Purchased from ImSc300 from canada, fast to work with and I'd buy from again.

I will be updating the pics once the lips are redone and tires mounted

My updates, Started late on CL

I am aiming for the wekfest meet , that would be the goal for the project.


also I just received to front tires today. and off tomorrow.

I will be going to Riteway in Walnut Creek to pick up the barrels and see about the crack in the one.
call Tomas in San Pablo and see if I can get the wheels dropped off and welded.


So Goal tomorrow is to be up and over at the shop asap . get the faces put back on and two front tires mounted.

With the weird days off at least I can get this much done. and Hope to have the wheels on with in 1 more week tops or find a good welder if that shop isn't available.

Needing to call about the kit and see if late December or early January time frame.

Once picked up test fit, paint and redo fenders smoother and see what new Hid color I choose to change it up to

and after all driving to 3 different cities to get the barrels picked up and one dropped off and mounting the faces , and taking to tire shop ! here is what we have



Now Note , I will be ordering spacers 15 mils all the way around to achieve the look I just had . and yes the front will be Spaced out but this is the look I wanted.

No further pics of this on the car unless one toyota fan has some 4 15 mil spacers they are willing to part with for me
