Arrow New addition to the Family PICS>>>>

Ok, so I've been on this forum awhile, posted my car, my questions etc. etc.
This one is for my Bro-In law!
He's been a fan of our 2GS's for a while, and showing him pics of CL members lex, he decided to join the club, got a 99 GS300 fair price , mint condition
and already started the build
please give all comments positive/negative
just a couple of things i would change IMO.....but not bad

sorry I never can post multiple pics, on one post

not too bad, in my opinion though i would change the inner tail lights to either shave them completely off or try painting them white, also the black paint on the bumpers too much contrast of black and white. the painted rims and black roof are just enough contrast of the black and white theme but overall looking good.
