I can identify with you on the being young and wanting to do something "young" part.. but that's ugly AF bro. TRUST ME, I'm coming from 2 gsr's and an s2k, I wouldn't even do that to one of my Honda's. Do the vinyl like somebody above stated.

Exactly, stole the words right out of my mouth.

To the OP, Im not trying to be rude or bash you. Remember these cars are the sister's of a Supra. Im glad you posted this up on ClubLexus instead of supra forums. Again, you drive an SC. Let me show you the difference... This is my interior, Ive been keeping it on the DL but with this thread Ill go to the extreme of showing it...
Lets say you and I both roll up to a car meet, compare and contrast shall we?

My interior:
Custom Gauge setup/ Matrix XRS steering wheel/ IS300 airbag/ Alpine double din/ woodgrain repainted dark gunmetal/ and the first SC yet to install 2010 SRT10 Dodge Viper seats/



Would you be more impressed with this or a cars interior full of stickers? Again, its your car, you do what YOU want, Im just trying to help out towards a better interior choice.
I understand being young, Im only 21 man, but this car motivates me to work. Over the summer I put in at LEAST 60 hours a week working 7 days a week to help modify and pay off my Lexus.

If you enjoy the sticker bomb then do it, but I also started out with an ugly interior. ****ty torn up tan seats, and the seat adjustment only wanted to work when it wanted. Super gross carpet too. Just keep searching the SC300/400 classifieds carpets pop up all the time. Craigslist and Ebay are also great!

I have to chime in on this one.....

The bottom line is that it is your car, and if stickers is what you want, then by all means, do it.. I think you have gotten the impression of what the older crwod feels like you ought to do.. I would redo it in all black, and take your time and do it right. If all you can afford is the stickers, then keep saving to buy paint and other means. JMO..

GL in your decision.

Don't do that man, if you want a clean interior then you can fix it up. My interior wasn't like that at first. I replaced the leather for like $600 and got a Camry steering wheel for $100. The vinyl wasn't too much since it was my brother's friend who hooked us up (He has his own vinyl business going on). Sounds expensive, but at least I know that I'm done with my interior. I'm sure others agree when I say you should keep a Lexus a Lexus.

Gahhh... but it is an interesting take on a common problem.

I'd drive around with a blindfold to keep from looking at a trashed interior. My driving would deteriorate, but how would that be any different from the other idiots in my city?

Props for ingenuity, I guess.

ok, like i had said, this was to cover up badly taken care up interior. it wasnt like

oh geez i got perfect interior without scratches crazy glue and other random things holding it together im going to put stickers on it.

my idea was, cover up the ugly with some stickers meanwhile i can afford to get ALL new parts. im talking either all black interior or all tan (i kinda like the tan more idk) yea i know the stickers are a little kid fad and what not but it wasnt an idea for a permanent design it was a, eh itll look better than it looks now kinda thing.

i know i dont have a honda, i got a dang LEXUS SC300. in other words, a car you dont f*** with when you pull up next to it lol.

so i hadnt seen all the latest posts but im sure all of you are glad that i pulled a loan and im going to buy all OEM parts sooner than i thought. i give my car project a year to fix it. and yes guys im taking alot of videos and pictures so i can show you guys lol. no sticker bombs, just a couple stickers on the back windshield. ill post pictures later. i love that sc300 with the viper seats btw.. lol

its not a bank loan its well in spanish its called a "cundina" idk whats its called in english
A "cundina" is a system, where usually coworkers/friends pool money together and then each gets a turn at the pot. For example, 5 participants each contribute $100 each week for 5 weeks, so each gets a turn at getting the $500 for one of those weeks. luckily i got #1 and #1 happens to be on my pay day. so im getting 1000$ total this pay check because the cundina is 500 and i get paid 500 get it?

plus i got 2 numbers so im getting 500 at two different points in time

I think this is funny as hell most of these threads are people put ideas out there for feed back and they get the feed back but at the same time people knock them for wanting to to do something different. Ya like I said I personly like the look would I do it absolutly not and no its not a Honda fourm. And I know we all drive Lexus's and we all have different tastes but dam if someone throws an idea out there don't act like he's going to do it to ur car or if u don't like who gives a **** don't beat the guy up for posting a dam idea.
