Need several recommendations for 2000 LS
Hoping you guys could offer some insight and make a few rec's on some things needing to get done:
1). recommended fog light bulb replacement? bright white style to match HID headlights
2). Have a bent wheel causing some problems - want to stay with the 16" size. Any good recs on some good-lookin wheels that don't cost a fortune and look a little more toward the classy, stock category?
3). Need to replace 2 front struts and possible lower bushings? OEM part # and a place to purchase?
4). In general, any rec's on where to buy OEM for the 2000 LS
Any help or direction would be greatly appreciated.
I am looking to keep the OEM as much as possible.
Thanks

1) This will be subjective because there are no halogen bulbs that will completely match HID's. Do a search for Sylvania, Mtec, RAZO, and/or PIAA and you'll see what I mean.
2) If you're planning on sticking with 16's, then just replace the bent wheel (or have it fixed) with an OEM one. I don't think it's worth it to get a new set of wheels (especially in 16") if you're not upgrading to a larger size or different style.
3) Someone will have to chime in on the part numbers.
4) Sewell Lexus - www.lexus-parts.com or
Carson Toyota - www.l-tunedparts.com

I've had a great experiance with Sewell, just bought front struts from them
Not to say anything is wrong with I-tuned, because I've never delt with them, but I've heard lots of good thigns about them.

Sewell Lexus has treated me well too -- they gave me especially good prices on my last transaction perhaps because I was a repeat customer.
I looked at quite a few wheels before buying a set of 16" x 8" Mille Miglia Bellos from Tire Rack at about $115 each. They have a nice conservative look and are still in perfect condition in their third winter - I use them only with my snow tires but like them better than my OEM 01 LS430 chrome summer wheels. I mainly see Bellos on S-class Mercedes.
