Painting lower trim
Hello LX guys. I have a 99 and I hate the bottom tan. Has anyone in here had that painted to match? In my case, it will be painted black, I was hoping to see some pics and get a idea of cost.
Complete project, would be something to the tune of paint the bottom, add a rear spoiler, matchn the tint all the way around and add some clean 18/20. Cars only current mod is a Grill Gaurd (After a parkinglot hit and run mishap )
I have noticed there are only 7 wheels on Tirerack.com... anybody have any ideas for a clean wheel for the LX, plus size, but not extreme?
Also, gas milage sucks terribly! lol. Ah its all good, I will put some crude oil in my pocket while I am here in Iraq, lol.

The only trim paint job I've seen was a black/grey that was made solid black. Very sharp. There are a couple of threads on here talking about it.
One wheel I love on LXs is the MoMo Vantage. Don't see it too often, but it always catches my eye.
Here it is on a GX.

Very nice, that is exactly what I would like to do,the white LXs look so good solid. I am looking at a Iforged 20 - black with a chrome lip, but that MOMO wheel does look nice. I wonder what it set the guy back who did the lower trim.

Well, my wife drives the LX. And... within 2 weeks thre was "trouble". It was $75 bucks installed, could pass it up. Where out in TX are you? - Do you think 20 black Iforged with Silver lip would look good on there? Or regular silver?

FYI - I AM IN IRAQ not home washing the cars, so please excuse the mess My wife has done a outstanding job considering this deployment, so I cant push too many buttons

Dont know of any body who had the bottom have of there LX painted but I do knoow of somebody who had the bottom half of their LS400 painted. I sure It would look absolutely perfect with the new paint job. It would look even newer. I thinking about gettings a 2002 LX and adding the 2006 grille HID kit and a Pair of 06 LEDs to the back It will look new but not be new.
