I'm looking for some suggestions from CL members. I just picked up a 98 ES300 with 51,000 miles.

What is the first thing you would do to it?

I'm not interested in adding power. What are some mods that really add to the appearance and the luxury of the ES?

What's a must mod for the ES?

Throw some dubs on it

Nah, just some nicer wheels, maybe a sound system, navigation system, bluetooth, upgrade the leather to heated AND cooled seats? That's be pimp!

tint, springs, wheels

Good looking wheels and drop with a nice fitment and stance

Throw in HIDs, with either a retro fit or Platinum series headlights.

I think tint is an inexpensive step #1 - kids will be in the back of this car at times so it's justified, right?

I think the wheel and drop suggestions might just be a good step #2.

I've got to get the damn SC done so I can move onto the ES world!

Keep ideas coming if you've got more.

Cleared mid section of the tail lights? Maybe a wise sport lip? LED license plate lights?

you can't clear the tails on a 98, but you can put tails from an 00/01 on. They look sharp, but are spendy.

with all of the above maybe even a nice new monotone paint job.

Lets not forget some of the 'finer' mods...you'll enjoy every time you drive.
Since you have a 98 .... Wood and leather wrapped steering wheel from 00-01 es. (150-200 on ebay)
16inch oem es300 00-01 upgrade
00-01 clear-strip tail light
00-01 bumper.

then, theres a moderate drop with lowering springs..
sound system or speaker upgrade
tint
O..and REAL Black Pearl Special edition emblems

A good wax job can do good too.

Ehh to small for an "upgrade" go for at least an 17"
