Sorry for taking so long to post pics... I've had a very long but eventful week. I had my wife's graduation from RN school, graduation/baby gender reveal party, and countless hours spent at the body shop trying to get the car done enough for AutoFashion's Vip Festival. On top of that, my wife and I were hosting my wife's parents and brother while they were here for all the awesome events. Here are some of the pictures that I've found. Phew... time to relax for a little now.

Went from this



to my 04 LS430 UL in Flint Mica.

.

First thing first I ordered the Data System Controller and JDM Celsior Window visors / 30% Tint. Installed and Dumped.


The next thing to get was the Wheels. I talked to Sean (JDMPalace) and had him order me my Weds Kranze LXZ in 20x9.5 +0 and 20x11 +6 both with the extra flange on the lip. He also ordered the Nagisa Auto RUCA and the Rear Toe Arms = $$$

I picked up my Nitto 555 (F) 225/35 and (R) 245/35 and got them put on the rims.

AutoFashion here in SD installed the Rear Nagisa RUCA and Toe Arms and cut the rear 1/4 panel for me. After that was all said and done, the LS looked like this.







Turned out when I went to get an alignment I under estimated the factory camber adjustment in the front. It sucked but I knew I was gonna have to ride like that until I could afford the Front Nagisa Upper Arm.

I started messing with the data system controller and snapped some pics of the perfect fitment in the "L" setting in the rear






JDMPalace came through again and I finally got the Nagisa Auto Front Upper Arms. AutoFashion did the install again + the Youzealand SS Pro Kit.

Seeing that the Youzealand SS Pro Kit lowered the car about an inch "L" mode for me was going to be off limits due to the aggressive wheel fitment.
So I had to suffice and stay at Level 9. 9 Wasn't low enough so 2hrs later after adjusting the factory sensors this is the final result. Even all the way across!







It may take a while but keep an eye out for more updates.
Wheels remind me of the EXE Konvex's

I'm on Air Runner, got rid of the factory air a while ago cause it was too slow and it gave me headaches with ride height.
