I bought some black interior pieces from a friend over the weekend and he installed most of it for me. Hoping to pull a black steering wheel from an RX at the junkyard later this week too.

My wife smoked one of her Cooper S wheels on a pothole over the weekend lol. She's got my truck so I got this bad boy out in the snow on summer tires in freezing temps. It was... A little dicey lol

It's a cheap knockoff one I found on Ebay. If you search SC300 roof spoiler this one will pop up for like $60 I believe. I'm a big fan of it!

Thanks. I think I would consider painting that my car's color, but the black looks pretty trick too.

I think painting it would also look great - but I like with the tinted/black plastic it blends in nicely with the rear window as well.

Thanks for the nice compliments! The wheels are Enkei RPF1's that are 18x10 +35 (I may be wrong on the offset but they're right in there) with 5mm spacers all the way around.

I ordered some LED’s for my taillights today. My 92 tails don’t have any bulbs right now.

I recently went through this with my ‘97 tails. What brand did you choose? If you’d like any words of advice, HMU!

Hey Nick!

I have mostly used LED’s from Superbrightleds.com. There’s some I’ve had for over a decade that work perfectly. I’ve used cheap eBay LED’s as well and have had good luck with them. My reverse lights are often different colors like blue, purple, or pink depending on the taillights/car. Sometimes the reputable places like Superbrightleds and V-LED’s won’t make a pink or purple bulb in a 7440/7443, so I’ll use eBay for that.

The ones I just ordered were from TheRetrofitSource, but I’ve never used their LED’s before.FedEx is running late so I’m not sure when they’ll be here.
