DAAAMMMN!!!!!!!! That is beautiful. The fenders must have been rolled or you are rolling some custom offset. Very very nice!

I just noticed the exhaust. That looks hardcore. Your car looks insane and without a body kit or any of that jazz. You made the car with the wheels and suspension. I am no longer sold on the idea that I need a body kit to make the car look nice. Great job and welcome

The right kit can really set the car off...but I'm convinced the 3GS does not really need one to look hot.
There are some I've seen that destroy the look and lines of the car. With that said, I will probably do one eventually but who knows.
Don't sweat it!

So are you rubbing at the top of the wheelwell or the front of the wheel(like when you turn)? Could the rubbing be from the lowered suspension because im getting 20's but keeping stock springs and I don't want to regret buying 20s and end up going with 19's =/

Tightie, thanks for the info. I want to drop the car for the look but don't want any rubbing issues. So, do I need to go with 19" wheels? I like 20" wheels but also want the drop. I was going to use Tanabe springs. How much do your springs drop the car?
