OK, im not usually a big fan of strictly aesthetic mods, but the new GS has some awesome lines and I think Im gunna have to go with at least a few of these.

My concern is paint finish...My 2nd Gen GS has rear spoiler painted by Lexus dealership, and it peeled at 5th year, repainted, and peeled again...been like that for 3 yrs now.

Any ideas on a paint that will keep up with the Paint/finish Lexus used on the main car? My 98 still has glossy nice paint even being exposed to AZ's extreme UV.

Finally installed the Lexon carbon fiber Kit and these are the new Vossen VFS-2 wheels 20x9 and 20x10.5. My wife's car has RS-R "down Springs" and I went with the new Toyo T1 Sport this time. Better pics to come.

Looking clean LexFather! I really like those VFS-2s. Any plans to black out the front grill or roof?

Hi bud, thank you for the compliments. She is iffy on the roof so not sure. I do have the Lexon Carbon Fiber front bumper garnish and she is iffy on it as well and thinks it makes her GS look like my LS too much. I still have not installed it so not sure what I am going to do. Probably try it on the car for a little bit and see if it grows on her or be told take it off.

The Lexon lip is on my upgrade list; very distinctive. However, i agree w/your wife on the garnish...
