Thumbs up Aristo book

Hey gang, check out what I got my hands on..... I got this "FAT" *** Aristo book. It has tons of stuff for the Lexus Aristo. Body kits, wheels, chargers, mufflers, seats, wood, lights, pedals, coil over kits, springs, damnnn the list goes on and on and on. Now I can see where those pics are coming from. You know when someone asks, "hey anyone know who makes this?" Well, this is an excellent reference. I may have a Japan connection and hope to have access to stuff that is not available here as it is with just about everything for this car.

1600 for a set of 18 isn't bad at all man. but for the gs i always have the impression that 19 is the "right" size. but then a good set of 19 would run you for around 2600

ah, japanese book store, good, i need some of those for my reference!
