Was wondering when you'd get bored of the IS. GS is looking great

I miss my black wheels, but I do love the red. I agree it is flashy though haha, thats why I do not drive the car as much; its mainly for shows / meets.

I bought the harness on ebay for like $8.00 iirc. I need to modify and then try to integrate the system. Will try to get it done sometime this week if not next weekend.
Car is going in Monday for alignment and coilover adjustment

I have been on Super downs for less than a month and I'm ready to go to coilovers. How much lower were you able to go on coilovers vs. Super Downs for DD'ing?
I'm pretty sure we're running the same size wheels/offsets/tires. I'm on 20X9 +32, 245/35/20 and 20x10 +45, 275/30/20. Did you have to do any fender mods? Thanks Josh..
I forgot what brand I am using, I got em from Takemi-San from Lexon Japan through one of my friends...long story haha

With the coilovers, you can drop the car pretty close to the wheel lip. I shaved my rear fenders, I havent done any fender mods to the front.

Thanks, looks great.
I went with a 12kg/10kg setupup; stock BC was at 8kg/8kg. Car handles alot better then it did with the super down springs; a night and day difference. At my current height, I only experience minimal rubbing on the linear when I hit huge dips. Ride quality wise, its firmer then stock, but very comfortable.

Josh your ride looks sweet! I got a '13 GS350 F Sport and would love to do some of the visual mods that you have done. Would actually like to get your help on it to be honest. Willing to drop fade on it seeing as how you got lots of experience. I live up in the 925 so I'm only like a 40 min drive away from you. Let me know man, gotta get my ride looking Playa like yours.
Out with the old, in with the new! This is where the build thread comes to an end guys. Needed to quit before i ended up with an air suspension, blingy wheels, and a new kit....just like what happened with my IS build. Couldn't be be happier
