Well here are some teaser pics and a couple of what a gs400 interior looks striped down. The car should be heading to paint tommorow!







Note how much chage was found in this car. LOL

nice work except "cut stock springs" FTL... Can we expect racing stripes on the GS too?

Just noticed that you're embroidering "Lexus" logos on the seats. I can see where this build is going. What kind of headrest monitors are they?

Well took some more pics today. I have to admit the neffy wrap is FTW. Anyways I tried to get the the lexus emblems done but the shop that does here locally is 3 weeks back ordered, so I decided to past. Though I couldn't be happier how everything is coming. Here are a couple more teaser pics. As far as the interior goes things are getting REALLY Close. Hopefully everything will be done tommorow.

I'm glad you passed on the logos...I think it looks cheesy personally. The seats and interior look really good!

Actually I decided to go with a super high grade vinyl. It actually was more expensinve than the leather counter part I was looking at. Couple of things, one you dont have to condition it. Also this vinyl is WAY softer, it won't crack, and its completely water proof. Anways its all turning out GREAT and by the way the car is heading to the body shop today!

Are those the stock headrests that you put the monitors in?
What size monitors you put in?
Interior is looking nice
