Took out rear strut assembly today in preparation of coilover installation tomorrow



Made the coils 3.25" shorter than OEM, if it needs more low once they're on the car I'll adjust them accordingly
An insane amount of negative camber is going to be apparent

What wheel gap
Rears



The wheels are sunken in so no rubbing issues (8.5" and +35 offset), decided not to go with a stagger setup

The black parts of the grill were fading so I touched them up, also blacked out the Lexus emblem.

Also did some headlight garnish on the passenger side

Thanks! It adds a LOT of character to the car even though headlight garnish I did still seems very subtle. I tried to mimic the Junction Produce headlight garnish style, but a lot slimmer so the headlights don't make the car look like it's sleeping

I will be dropping the rears by almost another .5" later today, I have enough clearance and I want to minimize how much tire is exposed

Finally, finished installing new rotors, painted calipers, and coilovers on the car

Don't mind the dirty car!



If I don't roll fenders soon I'm toast

Haven't updated been on here for a while, but here's a slight update on how the car sits



New set of wheels, and even lowered even more!

--

Installed a short ram intake a week ago


Some fender rolling done as well


The new wheels were test fitted

Nice looking car. What exhaust is that? I made a full custom exhaust on my aristo swap with vibrant tips and it looks identical. Very clean and fitting to the car. Much better than big cans.
