Default Few mods.. Getting Started.

Ok, I've put a few mods on the car and i'm now ready to post off a few pics.

I jumped on the Sewell GFX blowout. I picked up the front lip and the side skirts. (They don't have the rears ) I've installed the front lip.. the side's should be here on Tuesday. I also put on a rear deck spoiler and CF inlays on the emblems, painted and decal'd my calipers and Put some Sylvania SilverStars in my highbeam/city lights.

Next up:
Installing the sides.
Tint (when my tint guy gets back from vacation next week).
Lowering.. I'm thinking F-Sport.


Here are some pics:

Yes they are beautiful. But I find it most difficult to photograph black cars.

Yes it's a Lexus Decal. I painted the Calipers Gloss Black with Dupli-Color Caliper Paint and then applied the decal bought on Ebay.
