3/1/14
When we just got her at Newport Lexus:


First mods were tint, redouts, and platidipped L




Next up in April were f-sport springs + f-sport rear sway bar. I thought I was done after this..




May: wrapped the interior trim pieces in CF vinyl, painted brake calipers black with f-sport logo, HID fogs






June/July: Got a great deal on BC coils and Tanabe Medalion and had to jump on it

How she sat after:



August: DCTMS flat bottom steering wheel and Volk CE28n:




no camber kit =/

After camber kit and settled:


Here she is today after 6 months:

Thank you! Next up is roof spoiler and gfx rear lip.

Kinda feeling a GS F-Sport front bumper conversion like what HKS350 did.

We'll see

The shop drew the line there with another thin line in between it to accurately correct toe.

West End Alignment doesn't use the conventional laser alignment setups. They swear by the "old fashioned way. "
