The transformation of my ES
#31
really nice!
i just picked up a 97 es300. i plan on doing very minimal cosmetic changes. i like what you did with the rims! something i had not thought of before. did you lower it? or is that stock height?
also, was wondering if the 2000-01 tail lights would work on a 97?

Thanks! And no I did not lower it. All stock height . I figured it could use a little lowering but I didn't want to go too far into modifying it.
As for the tail lights, yes they are a direct fit. There is an extra bulb on the 00-01 tail lights on the outside of the outer most markers, or so I'm told, so you will have an empty hole. But that's not an issue.
If you end up swapping tail lights, I can help you with instructions on how to go about removing them as they're a little tricky.

once i gather the time and parts, i will contact you for input on the tail lights, thanks! im really looking forward to getting this project started!

That thing is beautiful! I really want to do something similar with the ES I just bought, but i think I may sell it after fixing it up and driving it for a while and look for a super clean one. I think for 1K more I could have gotten something immaculate and I'm already looking at being a few hundred into parts and a decent amount of labor to get it to normal good driving condition.
