ty

lol, damn joel already moving in on my credit. haha jk joel helped push me to do this really

thanks micheal, how you been? get your screen yet? i got another major nav writeup coming....i now have NAV OVERRIDE/BYPASS permanently

a complete replacement. all CF, NO overlay,no fiberglass, etc

i know, i know. we'll just have to call this a teaser then

ty,coming soon

yup, after i thank god i didn't wake up as a bitter,jealous,hater like some people. is this your contribution to another post on here? glad u in the CL family, cant wait to meet you ......but since you have NOTHING to do with the topic i will now no longer respond to you as i don't wish my post to get closed for some pettiness with a hater

ty

um, i was in Atlanta a few months ago for Paul McCartney. u were supposed to meet up with Tony, Micheal, and me for brunch but you were hung over. I cant make the meet next Sunday which kinda sucks but my car is no where near ready

do it....i just bought a kit for overlaying, gonna test my hands at redoing my headlight inners
(https://www.clublexus.com/forums/gs-...8-cf-tach.html)

but i recently discovered a actual CF mold kit to make molds of things im gonna looking into that also


ty Alex, no where near as nice as your car though. hate to see you parting it but when you get to CR i want you to send me some rum, i didn't bring enough home last time i was at the Bacardi place there

thanks pete and DEF no where near as nice as your car looks...maybe one day i will be a baller like you and next time i go to HI i wanna meet you and ricky. shame i been twice and i didnt know of CL back then

i have 2 actually....the black one that took me months to find off a sc430 and the OEM one from my gs430.....the oem one from the gs430 was used to make this mold so its kinda rough (i havent seen it actually but it is being returned to me and from what i hear they sprayed it matte black to clean it up some). we might be able to work something out, will know more when i get it in.....
so you only civil with me when you want something fonzy?

thanks, me too. i gotta try and source a CHROME L for the engine cover now as when they made the mold they shaved it off and i doubt they saved it.

DOES ANYONE KNOW WHERE I CAN SOURCE A CHROME L FROM A OEM GS430,LS430,SC430 ENGINE COVER? can u buy just the L from a dealership, i doubt it?

It seems like you have done alot of stuff to your car, but I dont think Ive ever actually seen the car. Are you just gathering everything before you put it on?

Nice idea and execution Brian!!

It's so pretty! Can't wait to see it mounted? Are you gonna do more pieces to compliment it? I like it!

The company that did all my interior pieces are capable of this as well and thier turn around time is great!

Thier prices are reasonable as well? Just trying to help others that's all! Let the owner (Frank) know I sent you!

Great job on that cover!

haha u might not have....i have pics of when im working on it, but i dont think i have done a whole lot of exterior pics as my car is stock outside except the lights (exterior honestly is my last mod) but yes to answer your ? i am a parts *****. i hoard parts like a pack rat. have parts in my room that have been there for a year or so unmounted, unopened just waiting for me to install them

ty sir

will do, i bought a CF skinning kit a few weeks ago (just waiting on it to get here from england) so i probably will do some other pieces and if i decide i cant do then item i want i will have someone to them for me. ty for the heads up on the link though

ty

thanks kyle


seriously now i been on sewells site for awhile looking for a few things

i found the engine cover but doesn't seem they offer the L separately

http://www.sewellpartsonline.com/***...l=203&year=162

can anyone hook me up with a L they de-badged from their trunk, or from their engine cover or can someone tell me where to get the L from the engine cover? i dont wanna ruin my other oem cover just for the L

coupdabill

Like it Very MUCH

thanks it LITERALLY just came in ups, it looks amazing. thanks to the 4-8" of snow we have gotten in the last 2 days has put me behind. i will try and get the new pics up soon but i got my final tests for the MPD the 20th and the 27th,my neice's birthday on the 10th,moms on the 12th, valentines day with the gf sun, indoor soccer games on tuesdays,spin classes on thurs,working my full time job of 9 years and my part time job of 2 1/2 years,trying to get into the gym daily,and of course my own birthday the 27th so i cant for sure get the pics up as quickly as you'll will want them

well thanks....yeah they told me the same thing. we burying the hatchet now? i kinda wanna keep the oem silver/black/black sc430 cover but i can sell you they oem silver/black/silver gs430 valve cover the used to make the mold but its kinda rough and they sprayed it matte black to kinda clean it up, will post pics of it when i get the new pics up.just be a min so bare with me

i wont use lextasy for anything plus 35 for that damn emblem OUCH

ty. gonna remove my strut bar and put some foam underneath it so it doesnt rub yellow on it like it did my black one and im gonna weigh and compare them. the CF is wayyyyyyyyyy lighter and def sexier.

so to all bare with me i got a VERY busy next 2-3 weeks
