Default Help Me Pimp My 1st Gen Up, Need help with getting some parts PLEASE

Hey Everybody

I've never posted anything here before.... i realize this is the best place to get help. I have a 1994 GS300 and i need help on a few things please. I'm looking for the following: (my dirty laundry list for my car)
- New Lexus Floor Mats
- Hood Lift Supports
- Trunk Lift Supports
- Headlights! I read somewhere someone can get the ARISTO ones in Japan? Can someone direct me to the site or person??
- has anyone done roof mount antennas? how does that look on a gs300?
- friggin new cup holder! argh!!!

Thanks guys!!

Cool

Everything you want can be found on EBay or at www.toyotaandlexusparts.com for the best pricing on OEM. The Aristo headlights are not wortk the money, you can clear the orange lens on the USDM ones for the same look. Also the JDM's are aimed for the JDM market, you'll end up blinding others and if you have inspections in your state may cause a problem.

Just like turbogs300 said. I was also in need of trunk supports and flooor mats. Found the mats on eBay; the seller was actually a Lexus dealer, Sewell Lexus IIRC. And the trunk supports I got from them or Carson Toyotal.

I did the trunk struts from Pep Boys and am pretty happy with the results. $30 each beats the dealer price, although Carson might be reasonable, if you're close to them.

Good luck with the parts. I need the cup holder myself. It's driving me nuts. Hood struts would be nice, but they're not essential--I don't plan on spending too much time under there...

For the Trunk Struts, Go to the LIFT-O-MAT section at Pepboys ... Part # SG326003.
