Default Finally, the real pictures!

Sorry, Photobucket wasn't loading my pictures, and the website was all out of wack, so I have to post about 3 times so I can post all of the photos. I didn't wax, I just cleaned the inside and out basically. Bro had to take off to work...
anyhow, enjoy the pictures..
<FADED PAINT, I know----depressing.

I'll get all of the pictures up....

Speaking of which; does anyone have the taillights including the inners for cheap?
I spent most of my time at the steering wheel scrubbing it...

Very nice, looks a lot better. If i were you, i would definitely invest in a repaint of at least the roof to get rid of the fade, it might cost some but you got the car for cheap and its worth having it done, at least to me. I just recent;y had both my bumpers repainted cause of fade and parking lots dings. My car is alredy 12 years old with 200k miles, but i figured it was worth it.

Thank's, I know it was not healthy for the leather on the steering wheel, but I used degreaser, THAN I used interior protectant. That's how bad the dirt was...

It's not my car, it's my brothers. He doesn't mind about the paint, though he doesn't like it. BTW, the GS300 has 160k. The SC400 has 149k. His paint is definitely complete toast. Both Lexus cars live OUTside . In the 3 car garage is the Sequoia, Suburban, and soft top Miata. Thinking about a carport though...thank's for the input guys!
