Lol. And he'll be back at it again in a couple of days.
P.R.S.22, Car looks great as always. I like how you've taken a low point (your "masochistic" tail light removal on a 97'), and turned it into a really nice finished product. When I read the first page of this thread about a year ago, I never thought your car would end up looking how it does now. Now only the Fan-boys leave negative comments about the lights. keep up the good work.

Haha....even I'm pretty amazed at how the car has come along since I first purchased it a little over 2 years ago. I never get tired of looking at her and overall I feel has been pretty well executed. Few more things and I should be pretty content
I have seen the progress your car has made and it is coming along nicely. That bad boy must be a beast to drive but the ultimate sleeper
I know Taylor....believe me if I would have known about this sooner I would have posted it up for other fellow members so that they don't have to spend alot of money on new leather and just fix what they have. Thanks for the comment as always!!!
Amen to that

Thanks for the compliments guys....I really appreciate it. As long as you approve Matt that's all that matters....haha. I will probably space out the rears later but for now I'm content. Just gotta get this bad boy lower when I get some more money. It's coming along so there will be more to come
Just wondering what are the offsets on the is350 wheels? I like them and the seem to be available.
We have the same car by the way. 97 pearl.

Where did you get your clear side markers from.

Sadly I don't know the exact offset on the ISX50 rims but if you go to their forum in here and search for the offsets I know its there because I have read it before.....just a real long time ago.
Yea these rims are always available and at a great price so you can't really go wrong with them. Clean look.....18"s....and tires are not that hard to find for these. What more could you ask for??? Haha...
Thank you very much for the kind words As a matter of fact I already started on the black/tan combo so I wil post pics in a little bit. Nothing much....but its a start and the rest sadly will have to wait till december/january when the christmas money comes in
Clear sidemarkers are for the GS300 off of ebay. They go for like 10 bucks shipped or something like that. You will need to dremel them down a bit in order for them to fit but I think its worth it and looks real good on the car if done right. Several threads have the write up on how to do it right the first time around.

Little update on the interior....started getting what I could done for the black/tan combo. This is really the only part of the car I could do myself since the rest is going to be re-dyed by the guy who did my seats. Painted the rear view mirror and center console trim black. Volume and temp control buttons are from a real black interior.
Later when I go back home I migh re-do it again because there are some small imperfections that you can't see but I can.....I'm a bit of a perfectionist.....haha.
Better pics of the seats and center armrest as well. Here you can really tell how great a job he did. Can't wait for him to do the rest of the brown parts black!!!!
These will probably be the last updates till the end of the year.....hope you enjoy!!!

Glad to hear another 97 pearl commenting on my ride. Truly appreciate it

Did you use spacers on your wheels to push them out? I really like your car it gives a good idea on how my car could look.
#294
Yea just like redphoenix said.....no spacers on the car. Just the drop and these particular rims. I like the way she sits and glad I can help you get an idea on how your ride will turn out
#295
Both P.R.S.22 and I have the same wheels and I personally cant even use spacers on the rear until I get a roll on my rear fenders. I love the look, now just got to get them lined up nicely.
#296
Yea thats tru.....we could never fit spacers on without a roll on the rears but for now they look just fine where they are. Gotta get an alignment soon Taylor!!! Haha...

Mind you its a bit rough since my buddy was driving the car and I'm trying to press buttons and hold the camera but you get the basic idea.
