Mine is not all that great, the clear coat is peeling on the roof. Scratch here and there; minor dings on the door but no major damage. Interior: front seats are shot, thats next on my list of things to do. But thanks for the compliment.

. So I just grabbed another one from a black es300, I should've picked up the passenger also.

Yeah, sorry for pointing that out haha. I notice little things like that since I had to do that with a black grill. Doesn't look bad though. If you got the passenger side no one would think twice. It just struck me as odd for a couple seconds haha

Are you planning to restore your ES? I'm currently in the process of doing that for my car

Yup I'm trying to restore the car, and making it look nice. Going to be my daily driver since my v8 truck (13-15mpg) is litterly parked due to gas prices and how much the truck burn gas.
