Nice purchase. Not a big fan of white cars, but it's a Lexus. Lexus GS at that.

Congrats and welcome

No I just swapped stock springs on and it needed 5 new ball joints, 2 new studs and I got it all back together and now the front end is making a funny noise

dont give up on her yet..... oh and btw..one of my headlights was replaced with a new one a year before i got it because of the auto level motor fail but the other one looked like crap when i got it.. all i did was refinish it with 400, 1000, 1500, 2000 grit wet sanding and a good polish and it matched the new one perfectly... and get a set of insurance LED tails and youll fall in love all over again! oh and some new wheels.

Alright she is back up and running. The terrible noise was the driver lower ball joint almost separated from the spindle. Replaced and driving alot better. Just glad to get it back. I dont know what the guy before me did to the suspension but it was a god awful mess.
