Damn...
YL06GS, may have done the most to his GS so far, we begin here, in the thread herem explains his TV in the headrest and additional DVD player setup
https://www.clublexus.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=154730
Analysis:
What can I say! He has the 2 DVD players so people can watch 2 diff movies in the back. Slick! And look at the glovebox setup, looks factory.
Here, YL06GS adds the first 20" setup to the 3GS!

Antera 20x9 front and rear.
255/35 20 fronts
275/35 20 rears
So here LasVegasGS chops and lowers his GS
1"drop
3.5" drop
Finally, YL06GS also has 3m tint all around. Great work!
Anyalsis:
The 20" wheels look great on the GS, it really fills the wheel wells. This is another classic 5"spoke wheel, very thick so it hides the calipes well. The tint sets it off as well!

Thanks, but it is AWD. The night picture gives an illusion that the gap is much bigger, and I think the second picture gives an illusion that it's a little smaller than it actually is...I would be happy with a 1" drop at most, but am still debating on whether to go that route or not...

They are 20" 255/35. I forget the brand I will have to check again. The second picture I posted doesn't do them justice. I'm trying to decide on a front grill right now, and I'm leaning towards chrome mesh. Honestly, I think a front grill would make a bigger difference than lowering the car when your average person looks at it, and I don't have to sacrifice ride and worry about possible vibration problems.
"Go low or go home". Ride height in my opinion makes the biggest difference in appearance besides wheels. You can definitely tell when a car is lowered versus one that is not. A lowered car will always look better than at stock height.
