Default My first Lexus, 1997 SC400

Hi All,


I now have my first Lexus, 1997 SC400 with HID lights, Megan Coil Overs, 17 inch SSR 3 piece, Clifford Alarm w/ remote start, OBX exhaust, 245/40/17 front tires, 275/40/17 rear tires.. Tinted windows, stock stereo, but not for long...front bumper needs to be painted, I need side skirts.


What do you all think?

Thanks,

The rear wheel almost sits perfect.. the front on the other hand.. is too sunken in.

Interior drivers seat has some wear on the left shoulder area, but other than that the interior is really clean. I will post more pics soon. I just got the passenger window re-tinted this morning.

Is that wax on the front, or is the front bumper in primer/flat black?

Front bumper is primed black, I don't know much about it, but its a 97 front bumper and is kinda flexible. I need to get grills for it.
