Finally!!!
FINALLY!!! started this in early march took three months to get my car
outta paint shop never let a shop that u know personally paint ur car
cuz they will take forever to paint it. Ordered new wheels beginning
of tha year took about three months to get it and when they arrived
they didn't fit cuz tha Manufacture send me tha wrong offset. They
said in tha ad for tha wheels that they were made specially for Lexus
then come to find out later that they test fitted all tha Lexus model
expect for mines so had to run around back and fourth between my house
and tha paint shop to be their test dummy.
Got car out of tha paint shop and tha rims situation all figured
out. Not even a week out of tha shop somebody rear ended me and it was
a hit and run back to tha shop I go... FINALLY after all my pain and
sweat my car is finally done in one piece Wat else can go wrong rite
crossing my fingers FML!!

Congrats bro, and I feel your pain. My car was in the shop for almost 5 months before it was completed. Haha, the only difference is that it's our shop! Hahaha, yah I knew it would be a while since of course we had to always take care of customers cars first and foremost. In any case, I just got my new suspension in last weekend and am tweaking ride height and dampening before I send the car to alignment. I'll post pics of mine in the next few weeks. Looking good though. Feels great to drive your own car again right?!

But all in all the car looks great.
