Had the ls600 headlights on for about a week or so they were totally rubbish in terms of cut off and beam pattern one side the led section was loose, had a place fix all that and aim it professionally. Put in led high beams. Car looks great now will post some pics soon. I’m looking forward to the rear tail lights

Rear tail lights with fogs, I’’m not doing what’s necessary to make it work for now.

got a good deal on centre console trim since I converted to oem non air I decided get rid of the button. Had the trim wrapped in Suntek film

ive had one drain and fill done, I’ll have another done soon. Lots of other stuff to do , I’ve ordered new foam bottom for drivers seat. I’m deciding what else I want to do with it .
What company did you go for with the springs? I'm hearing good things about Strut-masters. My air suspension is still going strong at 160,000 kms but I would like some insight just in case as I'm contemplating the pros and cons of replacing the airbags with OEM airbags or do the spring conversion. Some people have said that the spring conversion has improved handling, is that the case for you?

I went with oem Factory springs, kyb oen replacements for the shocks, all factory parts. I’m not a fan of what I hear from strut masters. So I went totally factory. If you are not doing your own work and are the US it might be unaffordable. It does make everything fill tighter. I decided not to use factory air springs because having seen how they come apart, and fail my personal opinion is it is not as well made as blistein air shocks that’s made for I think Mercedes’ Audi etc. check my thread you can see my my gripes.
