Default Design/themes...what would u reccommend?

I have a 1991 LS400 and am looking for some re-deisgn ideas. As of right now I have:

Xenon Bodykit
Tokiko blue struts
Range Rover Silver metallic
20" ns racing wheels







so thats waht it looks like right now. i DONT like the rims anymore haha and am looking to sell them but what rims would u rec? also, i have problems with my fenders. as u can see in one of the pics the back driver side fender inner lip has broken off due to rust. the body shop said they "fixed it" when they did the paint job. awsome paint job but bad body work haha what im really interestd in is new ideas. i was thinking black rims, maybe 19's and tint out the windows...

let me know what u think but my #1 concern is gettin rid of my rims

#1 concern should be getting rid of and preventing further rust damage to your vehicle. It will spread exponentially faster if it is not properly repaired.

Just my $0.02

get some suspension and drop the thing.

and sell the wheels

and the rest depends on what style u wanna follow with the vehicle. VIP is obviously out since u have that aggressive kit (me no like) so its really up to you.

vip aint out dude you just need to... rearrange it alittle, the front bumper (and rear) need to go, and yes new wheels and some coilovers, dont worry about tint right now, the wald v3 exchange kit has a sideskirt similar to yours so the kit would flow with it. or just try selling the kit as a whole. pm or aim me bro ive got ideas

Ditto on what he said...rust will eat the damned thing alive.

I know, I used to do body work for a living...the paint can looks awesome, but eventually the underlying damage will "bubble up" and ruin the paint job.
