Default My babys back!!

Just picked up baby frm the body shop after she got rear ended, nothing major, (almost 4 weeks ago) and here she sits with. Sorry the cell phone pics.

Had the roof painted back and added a lip kit i got from bichkikr

When i picked her up she was on stock wheels and i was 2nd guessing the lip kit. Didnt really like it too much. But once i threw the new wheels on there i was very pleased with how she stand now.

I have BC xtreme drop coilvers sitting on the kitchen table ready to get installed (hopefully saturday) and the 3 piece wing and rear wing spoiler will be installed sometime next week after painting.

Let me kno your thoughts.

oh btw the TRD logo on the grille was removed after the install of the wheels so it looks alot cleaner. More pics to come of course.

enjoy.

Your right, the last pic with the wheels sets the whole thing off.

Post up some more pics for us.

Any plans to go lower?

edit: BC coils in the kitchen...ok cool

nah dont get a trunk spoiler. i say a roof spoiler with a naked trunk looks bomb. But thast just my opinion. I'm telling u thins because when i put on the trunk spoiler i regret it, it looks a bit overdone. a simple roof spoiler keeps the GS rear looking fat!
