Default First time posts of my 2007 GS350 - w/ PICS

Hey Guys,

Finally after a few weeks of having everything installed, I got off my lazy butt and took some pics of my new ride. A special thanks goes to Derrick from D2Autosport for answering all my wheel issues and Kevin from MVP Motorsports for the ultra-fast shipment and pricing of the coilovers.

Very, very nice. But are you missing the center hub for the front wheel or is that the design/picture?

Thanks for the comments fellas. Seize.....you're correct.....they're the Work Euroline XRs. Bushwack....the center hubs aren't missing....it's just hard to see. The design has the black center hubs and I bought a set of black lightweight lugnuts to match the center caps.

Mind if I ask you how much 3M clearbra was for, and how do you like it? I'm getting VS clearbra installed this Friday, and most of the authorized places in my area switched from 3M to VentureShield. Since you have a pearl white color, do you see any yellowish shade from 3M film? That's what I have been told as the main difference between 3M and VS.

The wheels are Euroline XRs......set-up is 245/35/19 in the front and 285/30/19 in the rear. No rubbing but I plan to lower it a little more so I will probably have the fenders shaved a little to ensure I can still take my buddies around. I was originally gonna go with the 20s but I wanted a softer ride so I ended up getting the 19s.

I'll take some more pics and post it up. The center caps only comes in either a black or red color and I opted for the black color. The rear lip is about 3" but the front is very minimal.....only around 1", which is the way I wanted it to look. I really wanted the wheels to look similar to the BBS type wheels and requested less lip so that it wouldn't make the wheels appear small when it's mounted on the car.
