That's for parts, here the link for autos. Also, you might want to include the year of the car. I know it's a 98-00, but if we would help to know which one out of the three

When you said your kit was custom molded, which part of the kit was molded?

Default What do you mean by molded?

Whats up?

Thanks for your interest. I guess I should of explained a little better. The Veilside kit actually fit suprisingly well. We just wanted to make sure the lines were flawless as kits sometimes are not. The side skirts were shaped near the back so the fit had 0 gaps. Hope that answers your question.

Thanks!!!

Default Title Info

Thanks for your interest...

This car did have a Salvage the owner prior to me. When Lexus inspected the car, only the right front fender didn't match. I received the car in excellent shape. When I re-titled the car it was totally Clear. Which is great news. Please let me know any more info I can give to you. I tried cutting and pasteing the CarFax and AutoCheck. I purchased both to see the full info on this car. Both verified a current Clear Title.

Why does it have a California tag? Is the car in your name? Where exactly are you located?

Johnny,

Thanks for your interest. I bought the car about a year and a half ago. It went right into the shop for the Veilside kit. I drove it for about a month and took it back in for the rest of the mods. It has been in there for nearly a year and I haven't driven it since. I bought the car from Cali and never switched the plates. I live in St. Louis Missouri. Please let me know how I can assist further.

UR2slow88,

Thanks for your interest. I have a financial situation affecting my family that I must remedy by the 4th of June. It kind of puts me under the gun. Please let me know what you had in mind.

Neo,

Thanks for your interest. As far as the numbers go, we should know by Monday. It is going in for the final tune. I know it has a great base map so far and the AEM install went great the shop says. I haven't driven it and I won't because I want to sell it as a brand new build. Estimates on hp are said to be around 450. Please let me know how I may assist further.

Sincerely,
Jim
