Default Has There Ever Been A DUB 2nd-Gen GS

I was going through my latest DUB/Dropstars magazine over the weekend. I've been a subscriber to DUB for only about a year now and really don't know how long it's been published for. There's the DUB'ed out Escalade, Charger, Magnum, Range Rover just to name a few but has the GS been DUB'ed out? Has it been featured in previous issues or past shows that DUB cars were featured in. And I'm not talking about a famous celeb's own GS. I'm talking about an a official DUB GS.

I can't stand DUB style.

Perhaps ask the DUB forum? I'm sure there has been.

Though it is not an Official DUB GS I think that Paul Tolson's would probably qualify.

lol yeah he rode in with the air runners all the way up, i thought it was an off road with chrome 22's. then they laid out the carpet for the TIS display and he parked, then lowered all the way. two of the bumper linings popped off and he said it happens all the time and it was quickly fixed with zip ties. the car was fully done inside and out and i saw it later last year at nopi. i didn't get a chance to snap the pics of the interior or trunk. but let me tell ya, they did it right. but VIP was there with the Falken 2nd Gen GS and LS400 as well at the DUB show

Hey TMF2004, if indeed there wasn't one, then we can always look at the ad from JT Autostyle with a pic of a '04 GS400 with JT EVO doors. There ad is practically in in every issue. Hmmm, maybe that 2nd-Gen GS is DUB worthy.

Default The Official Dub GS!

Here is a car that doesn't get the credit it deserves, with all the political showboating that goes on at major shows! Adrian's, car is hands down one of the better looking GS's that I have seen presented at a major show ,but because of the political favorites he doesn't get reconized like he should! He's my vote!

I agree wringo. Seeing Adrians car in person really gives the other cars a run for there money. The choice of mods and craftsmanship of the GS put A's car to next level above the others..
