Default First Lexus!

Hey guys!

Just picked up my first Lexus a couple weeks ago and decided to join this forum and slowly get ideas to build my LS460 (first mod being to pay it off of course haha). Just wanted to stop by and say hello from Texas!

Welcome. Not much of a modder but hope you'll gain something from our experiences.

Thanks for the warm welcome everyone! Will definitely take more pictures once the weather permits. It's been raining nonstop down here.

Yes, it does have the 19" OEM wheels! (I noticed a lot of LS' have 18") by LWB do you mean the 460L? If so, it's just a regular 460 lol.

Very nice,

Most of the LS's you come across with those specific 19" OEM wheels will be long wheel base (460L)... someone must have optioned these wheels on the short wheel base model when they initially purchased it... it's a very nice upgrade you got!

I think they look really upscale. But then again, I'm biased...

Looks great. Congrats!

I made modifications to my trusty old '02 4Runner
but the closest thing to modifying I'd do to my LS
is personalizing the Navigation, Bluetooth and audio settings.
I admire you guys that just dive right into it w/ a vehicle like this.
