Maniax...what happened to the chrome trim on the outside panels

The interior/exterior is flawless
Next mod...wood trim for the window switch panels

I went to a junkyard and took them off a 2001 ES300 and used a adhesive to glue them on, also my trunk was open when i took the rear picture, I also got the steering off a 2001 ES300 and used the airbag off a 1997 es300 for airbag compatability

So, it's just the small rectangular LEXUS plaques you glued to your original scuff plates? I thought maybe it was the whole scuff plates with the plaques included. Either way, they look GREAT!

Yep, I don't think there's any better choice (IMO) for the interior other than black. I guess maybe I'm a little biased 'cause mine is black too

Nice car, and your new wheels look great. My '96 is a lot like yours. It is a "little old lady car" that I bought at an estate auction last summer. Auctioneer started the bidding at $3000 and I was the only bidder. Mine has little medalions that say "Coach" on the front fenders, but I'm not sure what that means. Black with black leather, immaculate stock interior with only about 47k miles. Absolutely reeked of some kind of perfume when I got it, but that went away after a few months. Outside has a bunch of those little old lady parking lot door dings and scrapes, which I hope to get fixed this summer.
Do you still have your original 15" wheels? I need a couple--or maybe a set, depending.

Car looks great. I have a 2000 ES300 Platinum edition with the wood steering wheel. I love it. Makes the interior look complete. I got that platinum edition rims I'm thinking about selling.
