Default Picked up a new Daily Driver

So I picked up a new daily driver as my UCF10 is down at the moment. It's a white 2003 GS300 w/ Black interior navi with ML sound system.



Got curious with the wheel clearance so I wanted to see how my car would do with my LS wheels lol....

Before:

Front


Rear


Back shot


After just mounting the wheels on

Front


Rear


Back Shot




Front Shot


It doesn't look too bad of a work. This is still on stock ride height so i'm debating with either going air or static for my daily.

Since this will be your daily, do you plan on keeping it simple? You've been around some very nice builds over the years so it wouldn't surprise me that you take the car to the next level.

The color is parchment white. It is white with touch of silver. From certain angle, it looks silver.
