Default "stanced" es350 build

I dont think i ever made a thread in my live or made a post in the last 5 years but i figured ill give it a try heres my 2007 ul es350 in stare fire pearl (most imasculine color code in the world). These are sum of the pics of the progress and changes my es350 has gone through, or someone who hates lowered cars would say suffered through.
It started out its life with me and my family as a preowned car with 12k on the clock when my mother purchased it. When super storm sandy came around (i live in ny) got a little wet, so my mother basically let it go and got a 2013 es350. After begging and pleading with the insurance company and the lot it was sitting in, i got the car back home. Besides a smelly carpet, the car was fine. I took up a carpet cleaning job to cover the payment s and i have been ruining since then . The car used to have eibach spring and cheap shocks but they exploded on my when i was on the highway but thats another crazy story ill get into later. Now the car sits on cx racing coilovers for a v6 camry. There good coilovers for the price not the best in my opinion because they dont have the front camber plates like many coilovers out there but they were the only ones i could find with the spring rates i wanted (10k front 8k rear). They ride stiff as hell but i never bottom out. Currently the car sits on sc430 pie plates for the winter. Im also saving up for air suspension because of axle issues. Sorry the essay length post, hope y'all find this interesting. Thanks for looking!

Good for you!
I have the Starfire pearl and Love it.. It looks awesome under the street lights.

So how did you get the carpets cleaned up and the smell out?
Did you have to replace them?

Lol i wish, I think the situation is that either too low or not low enough so the axle ends up sitting level with the car, which it is never supposed to do (being that it is a cv axle and is made to expand and contract). This company in japan (everything is in japan) makes these spacers that corrects this issue. Im currently trying to get a hold of them.
