I'm assuming you also painted the chrome on the trunk lid? What about the chrome windown moldings? Are you dropped on coilovers/springs? Fenders rolled? Sorry for all the questions but the fact that your car looks so dam good makes me want to fix up mine... I'm amazed the an ES350 can look so clean/aggressive! Good stuff man, seriously best looking ES I've seen yet!

very nice
I'm just wondering how difficult removal and re installation of the door handle and other piece was for painting? Isnt it quite difficult to get the plastic piece covering the keyhole back on? I had a tech at a dealer try and show me one time and he broke it putting it back on...

Oh I see. I saw a similar ES350 to yours near my work in La Puente a few weeks ago around 9pm. Same color, lowered and similar 5 spoke wheels.
