Well after 2 months in the body shop (long story dont ask)I went on monday and tuesday and wet sanded and compounded and polished the car. It is now Lexus diamond pearl (3 stage)and looks great. The pictures dont really do it justice but if you see it in person it is nice. Today I got my Rims. ROH RTs 17" black ice finish / tires: Sumitomo 235/45 zr17. I installed my new deck on tuesday also. And my kit will be in this week and i ordered some clears. and once i put the kit on ill lower it.

I held the 18"s up to it but it was alittle too much so i went for the 17"s and they fit perfect

i put the pics in this directory so its easier to view. Let me know what you think.

Looks Tight.
How many Miles does your car have?

 

but switched the white pearl for blue looks good

 

I have just under 108. and everything is good except the tranny but monday im having it serviced and having a cooler installed.

 

yeah do you have any pics? i tried to show the pearl in the pics but its hard. but at night its cool cuz some times diferent parts of he car stand out.

 

looks great. i really like those wheels. did you do the paint job yourself? how much experience did you have before you did it? i never painted an entire car before, but wanted to do mine next summer. what did you do to prevent from dust and such while painting? what all did you do to prep the car and prevent rust?
thanks
