Okay...it is DONE (for now...LOL) and here is a list of everything that was done by Lexus of Tampa Bay's Body shop...no crap...these guys are very good!

Paint entire car Matador
Install complete CF TOM's aero kit
Powder coat exhaust tips black
Paint front grill black
3M grill surrond and inbetween doors CF
3M chrome edges around windows satin black
Install Black Pearl Eblems
Spray all lights with light black/clearcoat covering

I cannot believe how great it turned out...you know how you see something in your mind about how you want it to look...well this came out even better than my vision!!!

Here are a few pictures over the weekend and I am looking into having some professional pictures taken soon...

Hey man thanks and u get some credit as I used your gloss black exhaust tip idea...everyone said don't do gloss tips but I liked yours and now I am so glad I went with the powder coated gloss tips as it blends right in with the clear coated TOMS diffuser...

Hey man the kit looks great! I only have had the chance to get my rear installed an it changes the look of the car so much. Great job on the paint too. I'm always so hesitant to have my car repainted as I've had issues in the past.

Thanks man...it really is a unique color in that in the shade it looks almost burgundy but in the sunlight it is this incredible metalflake RED. And yes the whole package...Vossen wheels along with the paint and the blacking out came together very nicely...I am extremely pleased...thanks again for the comments...

Hey man thanks and yes they did...seriously they have a very good team at their store, sales, service and body shop and the guy who actually did all the paint work on my car is an enthusaist and he bought my stock ISF wheels for his very nice IS 250...the whole experience was AWESOME!

And I will be watching for you to add headers to your signature soon...
