Whats up guys! sorry i haven't been keeping you guys updated. I can't believe my girlfriend is posting for me... eeeshhh..... Well you've seen some of the pics from Toyota Fest. The car is droped a little bit on my stock springs. "Thank you Vicki for telling everyone i cut my springs " One of my customers over here took my tien hook up because he got his GS3 before me but i should be off the cut springs very soon. JIC Japan is sending over a set of FLTA2 coilovers for me to test fit on my car. I'll try to post more often and keep you guys updated...

Anyalsis:
Great place to put teh box, looks stock and no ugly box on the outside of the car.
Is this the XM Sat Radio box? Did the dealer install it like this? How is the reception? Does it work with the rear shade down?

My 2006 GS430 Black/Chasmere arrived on the Baltimore docks on Thursday. Waiting for the shipment to my dealer. Love your mods section this is great. I ordered the spider wheels that look alot like the mesh wheels mentioned earlier. I want the XM Sat Radio option, but not on the trunk, I hope they can put it on the back ledge like in the picture instead.

Default Mesh Grille

I found this mesh grille for the 2006 GS, but it looks like it sits on top of the old one instead of replacing it.
