Here's my LS, 470000 on the clock. I was looking forward to notching up half a million. I kind of feel that this won't be happening after a 6 ton truck wiped me out in Aug 2012. (It wasn't my fault). It hit me head on on the open highway and the cars safety cocoon held up. The insurance guy tells me only a select few of sedans on the market would have held up to such a force. I got out with a few glass cuts on my hand from the screen hitting me. The truck was written off as well and the driver has a few back issues.

too bad the LSportline kit has been discontinued for so long. there's actually a lot of them on member's cars. Dengman has one, SKperformance has had one, DaveGS4 had one on his old LS (that's owned by another member now), Lexkost has the only one that was customized to fit a '95-97....

I just like the front bumper because it's polyurethane

I just like it because you can use the stock fog-lights :P I don't like that I have a kit that I have to figure out what fogs I need to run.
