Since all the top Club Lexus members have there own dedicated build thread. I want to join in on the fun. My build is simple and I don't want to make it all that extreme just enough for that sweet neck breaking JDM Lexus style that people don't normally see on the streets.
Keep in mind i've jump from a 98 Honda Accord beater box all junk car. This new to me Lexus is my first owned car & my first time modding. Although i'm handy due to some break down on my Honda with over 200k+ miles. I've never in my life gone to a local shop to do any mechanical issues or changes. I guess i'm pretty lucky and I hope it stays that way.
I've scope around and notice all the members who i'd admire with there build, i'm also lucky enough to know some personal friends who are well into the car scene.

Somewhere around October I was in need of some lowering. Desperately enough i picked up a FS ad in the classified section on a used Swift Spring. It gave my car a much better drop.
So I ordered myself some good 3M 1080 Vinyl Wrap from Ebay seller called Metrowrap.
Got it done with a good friend of mine and this is our very first time adding vinyl or even touching vinyl. with some youtube search, simple materials and some laughter we got the work done.
I did the side strips later on myself within a few days.
Around early June i got a great deal on an F-Sport ( None Logo ) Exhaust Axle-Back System & Authentic Ing+1 rear lip kit. I'm in the process of sanding it down and need to buy other prep supplies like Primer, Base, and Clears.
