My First GS430
Hello All, this is my first Lexus build which is a 2001 GS430 (200,000 miles) I purchased from the Toyota dealer in Cincinnati, Ohio where I'm currently turning wrenches. I have access to all things Toyota so don't hesitate to ask any question, just give me time to respond. Thanks

I had to trim the "mounting ears" off with a dremel tool and saw, then used "fender screws" tomount with no glueing needed. I"ll get pics in a few minutes

Thanks for the compliments! I used speed nuts to fasten my TTE Lip to the bumper so i can remove it without too much hassle if needed. I did have to cut off the mounting ears on the lip due to them not matching up to my bumper. Here's some pics of how I installed it...
Speed nuts from Autozone
installed 6 of them to secure it properly
todays upgrades, clear side markers. not sure if i'm diggin' them though
Ebay link to the Lip

Great color!
I have Midnight Pine Pearl GS430 too.
Did you change the fogs to those yellow tinted ones? :O
I would've keep it stock 'cause those are wanted and look way better imo.
