The pictures are amazing.. nice job. I was at that meet and the car is sick. The rims are HREs and the kit is the OEM body kit minus the wing which I think is by wingtech or westwing I forget. He has Tanabe springs on and the drop is perfect for the 19's. I had mine dropped this weekend with the springs and its looks so much better. It gives it a sportier feel being lower. Ed is the parts manager for Bob Baker Lexus if you guys are interested in the springs let me know and I will pass it along.

Those are the HRE Competition Series... great wheels. They even have custom Titanium assembly hardware.

Car looks great. Wheel offsets look a little weak... seems like HRE is getting conservative these days.

Intalled Tanabe springs not quite sure on the measurement of the drop but it is definitely noticeable and the ride quality feels close to stock, I can't really tell much of a difference. I will post pictures but its been raining here in SD so the car is dirty but I will post some pictures tonight.

That is a sweet looking car. The spoiler is a little bit of an overkill, if they made it just a bit shorter but longer than stock I think it would look real good. Love the rims, love the color, love everything about it!
