Well, 3wks ago I bought a Lexus... Yup, that's right, not a Civic, not an Integra, and NOT a Tiburon. I have owned way too many of those in the last 7 years (8 cars in just the last 7 years, to be exact). And now, I have a Lexus. I'M MOVIN' UP IN THE WORLD!



~1992 VCV10 Lexus ES300
~3.0 V6 Non VVT-i
~5spd (yes, the rare Lexus 5 speed!)
~Pearl White/Pearl Grey two-tone
~Blue leather interior
~All power options (Even has the old Motorola Mobile phone hook-up that beeps like a **** everytime I start the car)


And here's what I want

~Full VIP style body/lip kit
~17 or 18 by 7.5 or 8 wheels
~D2 Coil-over system (or custom coil-over setup)
~Junction Produce interior accessories
~VIP style exhaust

So, come along and follow me, as I embark on a journey to be VIP!

I found these dope sexy muhfuggers for $800 shipped. (17x7 +38ET)







But then, I stumbled upon some OEM Lexus wheels... THESE!!!

Specs:
Lexus SC430
5X114.3 lug pattern
18X8
45mm offset



And I think that if/when I get the car low enough and with the proper stance like the ES above, these will look pretty damn smooth.

And I'm debating on air ride or Coil-Overs but I am leaning more toward Coil-Overs.

Probably the D2 RS version

I want my shizz to look as clean as this one.

Congrats and welcome. Looks like you will be on the right track, but I must say that the ES you posted is my buddy Charleys' car. The pictures hardly do it justice so his car is perfect for inspiration .

Don't overlook the maintenance before you start modding and if you decide on coilovers, I would consider some nicer coilovers if you can shell out the extra money.

The car looks great, it has a lot of potential!

LaidBack

Yeah, I snagged them from the VIP Cars forum that you posted them in. I would love to see his car up close. Even for being a 92, the car is pretty solid. Has minor rust on the roof, a few minor cracks in the 2 front seats and needs 2 front fenders. I found 2 used & paint matched fenders at a local salvage yard. for $150 each. I'm working out all the little stuff before I start shelling out all he cash for the "fun" stuff.

finally a TRUE 2ES enthusiast. All you see now are 3ES's. Those work rims are beautiful, where did you get them from. And once you find a kit for your car, Tell me ASAP, because I cant find them anywhere.

Oh boy... a 5spd.

LaidBack

OH!!!! And can somebody tell me who's car this is or what car that this lip was originally for and how they retro-fitted it to the ES?





And I also found a pic of SC430 wheels on an ES300

LaidBack

I havent bought the WORK Euro Fedelta's and I might not. I fould the SC430 wheels and i also fould a set of 17x8 with medium offset that I might just get, but those are a secret stash and I won't tell anybody about those.

Yup. That and the gigantic moon roof sold me on it.

if i where you, i would go for the work's. thats more VIP styling anyway. Plus, i seen the SC rims on craigslist for 500 with tires lol. that should put it into perspective.

Sorry about the "Hugh Jass" pics

And also, sometime in the next week or two, I'm gonna resfinish the headlights. I may even dis-assemble them and paint the housings black light the JDM Toyota Windom lights.
