(Lexus GS400) 65 degrees F in Dec.! 6 pictures before coilovers.

The weather has been decent the last few days. I detailed the car last night. It took about 6 hours. Here are some pictures from a 15-minute shoot. I didn't feel like bringing my studio flashes. I should have though. That's why the pictures suck. I'll bring the flashes next time. Plus, I don't have my computer to edit them properly. I just used some free software available on the web.

Anyways, the car is currently on Eibach Pro-kit springs w/stock shocks. I will be lowering the car soon on some coilovers. I will have some free time to install them in a few weeks. I will add to the thread after I install them. Expect some more pictures then. Enjoy!

Yes, it was.

SEmy2K2go, it's a stethoscope.

The exhaust looks freaking puny. I try to avoid rear end shots because of the exhausts. The car was accidentally in the shot below. You can see how small the tips are. The spoiler was still on during the time (Halloween). I had 4 belly dancers (girlfriend and her friends) and me in the car this Halloween. The car was slammed that night. Believe it or not, but that was the day that made me decide to lower it on coilovers.




2 more shots of the car:

dont you mean: "never ceases to amaze me?" In your case, your statement means that this car is dull and boring, and then you go and contradict yourself with stating: "...this car is just sexyyy."









but we all know what you mean...

Used Nex GT 4-way adjustables. The car has been raised back up 20 threads for upper control arm movement. Pictures later when the car is clean! The ride is better (better dampening, yet firm) than the Eibach/stock shock combo. It is set on 2 right now. I love it so far.

My cousin and I spent a few hours tweaking the height yesterday. Here are some crappy garage pictures of the results. The car is still waiting for a wash:
