interior looks clean, glad you you decided against a huge gawdy Lexus symbol on them, 18" doesn't look that bad at all!!...chopped springs though??? Seriously?

Yea I love the car especially the Rod Millen & Veilside combo...I've never seen that . But you put all that hard effort into the car just to cut the springs

Very clean, I especially like the Evo X in the background. I too have an Evo, but mine is a IX.

Honestly only certian cars can get away with cut springs. I was looking at coilovers but decided agianst them. One because of price, two I love the stock ride feel. 3 where else could I use that money to do something more noticeable. You would never know about the springs unless I said something. Instead that money paid for the entire audio system. That's why I made this decision. Though this cars spring setup is the perfect canidate to do this to you just have to know what your doing.

Anyways thanks for all the compliments, and I wantto make a huge shoutout for the guys at no coast customs for doin a killer job on the sound system and the interior. I'm looking for the staggered rear wheels just haven't found any yet the wheels were discontinued though I'm workin on it.

Quick question on the Neffy wrap. Did you do it yourself or did you have someone do it? I'd like to do the same thing and was wondering how hard it was.

Looks good, I like the way the body mods work together and the seats are very nice. Would've loved to see bigger wheels and some updated tails.
