Nice vid! So on those front wheels shots, how was the camera mounted? Suction cup to the bumper? GoPro or something else?

Im so jealous of your conversion, wish i had the skills to do that.

You should let us hear some of the car noises, music is nice, but we are all petrol heads and probably would appreciate some engine/tires screeching.

Great vid (watched the whole thing). What language is the music in? I'm guessing Russian, maybe? Definitely European... Car looks great and the burn out shots in the beginning were the best.

It was around 3k in parts considering i did all the paint and labor myself. I do have a build thread on here on how i did it.
It is Russian music. I am studying russian at school and i have an appreciation for the culture and music and thought that this song fit well. I'm sorry about the swirls geez cant a lexus owner get a break?!

^not trying to show disrespect or nothing, but you figure if someone can go spend $3k to change around their front bumper and what not... you can spend much less to keep your paint looking pristine... but I know most people don't agree with that, so I won't put up a fight

Once again - car looks great nonetheless!

Cool video man, do you have an LSD equipped? Mind sharing what mods you have? Thanks for sharing, it was refreshing seeing something slightly different than the form > function IS's you see here on the daily..

but i guess at the end of the day, it's a big frumpy car anyways...
