Lightbulb Soon farewell my True VIP Sedan~

Well, after all the efforts, time & money I invested, my true VIP LS430 will be heading to its' new owner in couple days. For sure I'll miss this car.
It was fun modding all these time......shopping for wheels, bodykits, exhausts. Countless time surfing the internet, Club Lexus, 30+ VIP CAR magazines which spent alot of time with me on the toilet.

Such a beautiful LS.. Is it lowered? And How big are the rims?

What are you replacing it with?

of course the car is lowered, no way you can expect the LS to look like that stock

eric, it's cool man, there is always an end, but after that it's a new start

Very nice LS atsou. I really like the untinted look, gives the car the total VIP scheme Sometimes too much tint on cars can be overexaggerated, but I digress.

Too bad to hear the car will be out of your hands soon, but hopefully the new owner will take care of it with as much attention and detail as you did

ATSOU - I think it's a general concensus that your car has been an inspiration to us LS guys. It's one beautiful masterpiece. It will be missed but hopefully the new owner will decide to be part of this site. Good luck with the new project (whatever it may be).
