See its possible no one believed me when i told them I put 9.5 all around on mine. Its clean bro looks like the fender in the rear are super flared! How bad is your rim slap? im actually trading my 9.5s for 10.5 +20 offset i can fit them with no problem im only running -2.5 camber in the rear how are you running such large wheels in the rear with soo much camber without hitting the coils? Mine with the -2.5 is about a half inch from hitting the coil. Also how did you get sooooo much camber? mine are maxed out on the pillow tops and the bottom. Did you notch the coilover more? Sorry for all the questions

Looks like your back seats get used a lot. Get some Leatherique to clean them up. Did you make that whole thing, or was it a kit?

Yea, I need to clean it, I will be doing so since my quarter has ended.

Yes built it completely myself, which is also why the leather is so dirty

Wow, nice work. You should add some padding to the arm rest. I don't think it would very comfortable resting your elbow on that during a bumpy ride.

I suggest removing the center belt, Buckle and associated hardware in the trunk under the deck lid, for a more custom look....

That's one bad ES. I've never seen one like it before. Keep up the good work.

I have a feeling mine will be the next ES300 to blow, although im using yours as a measuring stick to what I what mine to be. I may have to steal your GS300 trunk lip idea though. What size are your wheels? I'm thinking about picking up some 18x10's, as my last set of wheels( 18x9.5) rubbed a lot, but were mighty flush in the rear.
