Vossens finally came in today! Pretty happy with the results. Sprayed the chrome trim front/back last night as well. Still need to tint the front emblem and vinyl wrap the chrome window trim to black.
Apparently they have discontinued this color - which matches the Nebula perfectly, maybe a shade darker.

Wheels matches the car very well without compromising the age factor.

hahaha! Awesome, thanks!
I feel the GS350 is classy and sporty - after lowering it, front lip, wheels, tint, I personally feel it can work for someone in their 20’s up to 50’s lol.
But my opinion is biased because that’s what I want to do.
The wife still hasn’t seen the wheels yet, she’s my biggest critic. I told her I was at the tire store this morning getting tires (not wheels).
Drove the car home, she didn’t notice wheels, and drove back off. I have a feeling tomorrow she’ll notice. Should be a fun conversation.
Im a firm believer in asking for forgiveness vs asking for permission :-)

LOL!!! That’s for sure!!
Whats funny is - she’s walked past the car about 10 times and has yet to notice these Vossen 20’s vs the 19” FSport wheels. I may be in the clear!! LOL
