Default First Time Pics

I've been on this forum for a few months now, decided to finally get some pics up. No worries, i got my red outs in the mail and s-techs waiting to get installed(although i'm not 100% sure yet, kinda like the raised look even with the fender gap). And yea, i need a car wash, don't hate haha

you can't possibly like the gap...it looks awful on a lexus, maybe a honda. make it look proper and get those springs on ASAP!

Off to a good start...

My guess is that you are just trying to convince yourself that you like the raised look because you are not ready to lower yet. Those wheels are too big for the car to be that high.

Lower that thing asap!

Or you'll be pike me. You'll like how the car is, but once you see it lowered you'll feel way better about it

That looks awful!
Wheels don't suit the car, tinted film on the headlights just doesn't look good.

Good thing its your car and if you like it then thats what counts...i guess.

Even with a drop, the wheels won't do it for me but a lowered car is better than a 4x4.
