Default Choosing a bodykit and rims.

Combined price shouldn't be more than $10,000. I have a 1994 LS400 two tone green on top grey on the bottom. I hope to paint the car all green after I get the kit. So fire away suggestions.
I have been looking at a Veilside kit and Andrew racing deep dish Veilside rims.

I think the Veilside kit has been discountinued and the Andrew racing deep dish, 18in is the largest size. 18 are too small on the LS.

I like this front end.

This rear.

These side sills.

And, though it's out of production I still want the Veilside spoiler.


Any better suggestions? Lexi aren't my thing yet, you guys are still teaching me. But if any of you need MKIV help........

Trendy, but it won't fit your LS because it's for '95-'97 models.

I bought dual DTM tips from Borla. They need a little more space than is available too. Really nice.

I really like the Wald kit. Is that the companies name?
PS for the trendy side skirt, aren't all LS's the same wheelbase?

Yes, Wald is the name of the company.
I'm not 100% sure if all the LS's are the same wheelbase. You might have to get a little extra work done if you really want to get the '95-'97 skirts on there. You might also want to find out if it's just the side skirts you're switching out, because the door panels differ on a 1st gen differ from 2nd gen.
