Default Lexusk8- A pic for you!

I'm always hassling Doug to get the AutoCouture kit, and i was cruising E46fanatics (of ALL the places to find a modded Windom pic) and came across this. I have never seen the A/C kit on a car other than the site, and this one is beautiful. Hands down the best looking ES, nice classy wheels, nicely finished exhaust, low stance, etc

Paging Lexusk8, your budget deficit has arrived! Someone in this forum HAS to do this to their car!!

Saw that picture on e46fanatics too and damn near fell of my chair. Heh didn't know the ES had that potential to look so good.

Autocouture items are not cheap. I know when I was researching a SC, the kit was approx 2800 before shipping. and remember you have to ship from Japan

MRLEX this kit would be good for your car, with a nice set of quality wheels. you can even get a larger lip in the rear with the same width fr/rr. Just to give it the right "look".

I was waiting for you to see this!

Wink D, you never let me down..

I knew when I saw the subject of this thread that the letters "A/C" come to mind LOL

Totally agree with you man on how it looks gorgeous all around, the low stance due to the suspension, clean luxury wheels, exhaust, and best of all, the monotone black body color! Honestly I think it definitely puts the 2-tone style to shame, and as a whole this ES/Windom certainly puts itself a major cut above the rest

Just give me a few more years and a job promotion, and my ES and I will be at that level

Back bumper should be the same. You have to find an exporter from Japan to ship that. You can lower your car with lowering springs or a quality set of coilovers...not sleeves. And how about some punctuation next time? It would be easier to read than run-on slang.
