I just wanted to share some pics of my LS400.

This is the before shot


This is the *still in progress* shot


So far on the exterior of the car, all I’ve done is clear corners, re-painted the grey bottom, tinted windows (a must in west Texas), Megan E-Z street coil overs, silver painted calipers, new tires and rims (18”).
The interior has seen a new double din Sony head unit, re-upholstered seats, 97-2000 wood grain steering wheel, and a not sure what Lexus wood shifter.
The motor so far has just seen maintenance, water pump, timing belt, spark plugs, coils, and oil changes.

I also have this when I don't feel like a nice soft ride.

When I worked at a boby shop 6 yrs ago, I saw a 96 siverado come into our tow yard that was barly totaled but had the guys brains and skull fragments splattered through out the cab. Needless to say he was drunk, wasn't warring his seatbelt, had a sport steering wheel and went head on into a light post. But still barly totaled.

Moral of the story... 1) wear your seatbelt. 2) don't drink and drive, EVER!
