Default Pics

Hey guys,

sorry for the late pics been really busy with work.

some pics taken with my phone.

Got tints done 20% rear windscreen and 35% all round, white bits on the rear lights tinted, shark fin installed, rear badges plasti dipped.

Speaking to exhaust specialists about getting custom exhaust done (cant wait).

Looking online for some Tanabe NF210's considering there's a speed bump on every corner where i live.

Cant seem to source any lip kit for my car, all the kits i have found seem to be in America none in the UK

Also a few quick questions guys, I have read on the forums that some people get vibrations after installing lowering springs, what are the chances of the vibrations? as i'm not looking for a more aggressive look that's why I have decided to go with the Tanabe NF210 will i still be getting vibration issues?

Also it shouldnt affect my shocks should it? (factory fitted electronic damper control - Sport and Comfort switch under the armrest) I know i can install it on my current shocks but just curious as to any affects it may have on the shocks by lowering it.

Also what do you guys think of the Nissan Skyline Midnight Purple 3 as a colour choice for the whole car?

Thanks in advance guys.

Theres alot of Lexus around in the UK but when it comes to sourcing styling parts UK tend to lack in stock and availability.

Not to mention only a handfull tend to do them here in the UK for our GS models.

Theres plenty for all other models IS, GS2 but hardly any for GS3.
