Default Another GS3 with a Carson Kit

Here a few pics after I picked it up from the shop last weekend and today after I put the rims back on. Let me know what you think. Thanks!

I have BC Coilovers for the AWD. I actually had to raise up the car about an inch because I couldn't go up my driveway. The next problem was putting the jack under the car...luckily I had some 2x4s to lay up on.

The match is seamless now. Took the shop 4 days to match the crystal white.

Drop it back down! That looks like the easiest driveway to get into. I wish I had one that wide and not steep. Super clean GS.

nah the picture is deceiving. the entrance of the driveway actually has a hump. My wife's stock is250 even scrapes, but then again she enters the driveway at 20 mph.
