This was my first attempt to modify my GS300. I have not owned the vehicle for more then 2 weeks and I saw this DIY mod and I knew it had to be done...completely.

Enjoy the pics...

Started out as...

Nice, I've noticed you completely stripped all the paint even in the windows right? What did you use to strip the paint?

 

Looks great

 

Nice

 

Nice job on that

I too would like to know. I tried to strip the whole grill so that I could get as much chrome to show as possible, but it looked horrible so I spray painted everything again and stripped off the paint on the front and bottom.

btw I used Jasco premium paint remover, I think it was called, from Home Depot.

 

okay Lexusk,

thanks for da pointer....

 

Not trying to be sarcastic, but I've been reading posts on this exact same mod for 8 years now.

Do a search and you will find plenty of how-to information

I used "Goof Off"....yes I spelled that correctly. Its web site is www.goof-off.com It's in a liquid solution and can be used for many things but one is to strip paint so be careful. The other 2 things I used to get the paint off was an old tooth brush and some Grade #0000 steel wool. The tooth brush was especially helpful in the window area. Both were purchased at Lowe's.

Took about 3 hours...I'm very meticulous and wanted it done right the first time.

Thanks for all the compliments!!
