Default Finished with my "L-tuning" mods on the 2002 GS430

Wanted to thank everyone here at CL that helped me get the parts I needed to complete my project and patiently answered most of my newbie questions.

First of all for those of you in the Dallas/ Ft Worth area, Jimy Wright over at Davenport Motors in Plano specializes in Lexus Service and Repair and is a super nice and knowledgeable guy, so use him if you get the chance.

I'd like to thank EX540 for the brand new set of L-Tuned shocks and springs (dropped it just the right amount for me without sacrificing the smooth ride I've come to know and love), CorkyCal for the gently used L-Tuned mufflers that sound great and add just the right amount of growl when you step on the gas, tmf2004 in beautiful Florida for the brand spanking new L-Tuned side skirts I received in perfect condition and right on time (hope you got all your stuff moved and have gotten past all of that Hurricane problems), Paul J-GS4 for sending me the sweet L-Tuned badge kit (all 3 emblems on and really make a nice L-Tuned look) and lastly VegasIS300 and studyyl796 for the sharp Lexus caliper decals (I added Brembo Cross drilled/ slotted rotors painted the calipers "satin black" and used the Brushed Aluminum shiney decal on the caliper for a very finished off look.

Well thats about it. The GS was detailed today and hopefully I'll have some Pic's posted by tomorrow. Thanks again.

Congrats on the Mods What color is your car? I live in West Plano near the Cinemark theater and may see you around. If you get a chance PM me. I would like to take a look at the L-tuned exhaust and the brakes. Great to have another Plano GS owner into the Mods .
