all of the chrome needs to come off, wheel center caps, windows, and between the wheel wells. it would look better.

reminds me of robocop for some reason... and yes, looks like it's more rugged and could get beat up. looks awesome on a big SUV like the Tahoe, but not sure about the 3GS.

LOL. Rinse and repeat. +1 To mix Hassle the Hoff references, I don't think i'd change my mind even if the car talked and had a Yasmine Bleeth option. to each his own tho.

#1 No one in their right mind uses a GS350 for a "Track Car" - so the "track look" is a moot point.

#2 It just looks poorly done. Just the thought of calling a car "murdered out" is pretty sad.

limo tint the windows, leave a chrome lip on the rims and gimme a call. i normally don't like the chrome lip on black rims but i think it would be a nice accent to the chrome trim around the window.

The problem is the black wheels are to shiny they need to be more of a flat black, chrome trim need to come off and black lexus emblems, it just seems like a bad paint job!!!!

I love the blacked out sedan look, but this needs a bit of work still. First of all, I'd have gone with semi-gloss or maybe even matte on the wheels instead of full gloss. Second, it needs tinted windows and the chrome trim blacked out.

Here's a pic of my old M5, all stock except for black powdercoated stock rims and tinted windows.
