when i put bags i was referring to the phantom cup kit.. i heard bags aren't so good and the ride is really uncomfortable

got some coilovers gonna ditch the stock air and throw it on these coilovers.. these will go good with the phantom cup kit in the future.. next is rims.

What wheels are those? To be honest, not feeling them at all.

I'd change the face color...

Welcome man! Like the exterior color.

[QUOTE=Why33;448564]Welcome man! Like the exterior color.[/QUOTE]

thx me too.. this was my first color choice, then white, then black..

what do you guys think of the shinevip front lip?

Lowenhart LDR.

I think I saw you roll though yesterday at my meet..? You where on stock wheels though no? LS was lowered looked good!:biggthumpup:

lowenharts?

ive always liked that wheel design.

thx Q45er.. yeah my rims are still in the shop.. i rolled through for a lil.. lots of nice cars at the meet!! gave me some good inspiration.. i saw a white GS with some really nice gold rims with a step lip.. the rims had a lot of spokes.. really nice wheels.. not sure what brand they were.. he had green lug nuts that really set the rims off.. so many nice rides yesterday. Love the meet thx for the invite.

thx airmax, been a long time fan of the LDR's also and always wanted to throw some on a LS430.. i like the rear lip on the 20x10 but not really liking the 20x9 lip.. i wonder if i can run 20x10 all around or 20x11 in the back and throw the 20x10 in the front since the offset on these are like 45.

sounds like dara's ride.  dara is also too good to get bfast with me

Thanks for coming out, thats is Dara's GS with the gold Works wheels and green lugs, come on out next month hope your wheels will be done?!:biggthumpup:

love this color combo, esp the interior. keep us updated, and maybe i'll see you around orange county or even the BP meets.

Love that color welcome :)

I would lower the back a tad bit to match the front. Also, how do you feel about those Megan's, and which model are they? I was thinking about running Megan's on my 430 but IMO they've always been a cheap brand and I like to do things right the first time.

welcome to the site, 

great color choice, I dunno if I would have taken the factory air off for coils but it works, and I would have chosen a way different wheel choice too but it looks like you have been to one of the OC meets and that should steer you in the right direction.

Looks good, reminds me of the Air runner Ls430

^^^Oh wow, damn near exact

nicely dumped...

I personally like the LDRs on LS430s or any other big body sedans.  That picture of the Air Runner LS430 that JN.FYC posted is classic!

i'm a fan of ldr, they're just really loud in chrome. silver face maybe?

looks kinda donky

[QUOTE=selah777;459431]looks kinda donky[/QUOTE]

wrd. needs to be lower

The wheels definitely look "dub" to me, but the way OG posted with silver faces looked much nicer IMO. I love the color and the matching wood color is awesome though, car is coming along nicely.

The wheels are dub for sure the base or canvas LS is legit as hell.

Damn nice update. I think you need to dump it a bit more. But all in all looking clean. Hoping for more updates on this.

I like this color LS.  keep up the good work.  I agree, silver face would look great.

The car and color combo have a lot of potential. The wheel choice didn't help IMHO.
