The paint on my GS was based off of the original Spectra Blue Mica 8M6 but it's toned a little darker and was rendered in PPG's Vibrance paint, hence the extra glitter in the direct sun. It's actually two-tone, which isn't that noticeable on an overcast day. The roof and side stripe are a third color, Honda NightHawk Black with blue flake added. I guess it's been a decade since I painted it - the paint has held-up extremely well.
A few people noticed that I have different wheel styles on either side of the car. Most people miss that detail.

I finished the complete brake setup for my GS, 3 months ago...,and, all I will say is carbon-carbon brakes are beyond totally ridiculous LOL
kinda cool and fun (to me ), to have as far as I am aware, the only road going lexus (let alone other makes) in captivity with carbon-carbon brakes, including all LFA's
RUF porsche made 6 911's cars back in the day with carbon-carbon setups, think 1 made it to the states.
never going back to iron lol
i might post some pics down the road....its not important, but it is fun to have at least 5 times more braking power/capacity

LOL - I'm thinking "how can you tell that from this pic?" MR-2 Spider is yours, I'm guessing? Neat cars! (I have a first-gen MR2 myself). Either that, or you looked closely enough to see the MR-2 Spider in the bumper's reflection!

Hi fellow GS owners, I installed a set of Smoked side markers with LED bulbs ans trying out the TIRE STICKERS. I have only completed one side to compare. What do you guys/gals think?
