I was gettin a lot of grief from you guys on the minor mods i planned for my sweet 95 blk on blk sc300 a lot of you guys said dont waste my monery or time on rims without going bigger 18 or 19' and stock suspension but i wanted to maintain my sweet lexus ride and still look great doing it . i think the mods ive done are suttle but very nice like REMOVING THE PINSTRIPES AND THE FUNKY GOLD EMBLEMS and replacing them with the cf emblems i thought would look cheesy but i think they look great and the cf b pillars too , and refinished my headlights and put some new high output bulbs in them too . i think the car looks great for now rell me what you think i plan on possibly boosting the cart and 6 spd swap down the road , i just sold my custom built single turbo mit 3000gt and i miss the psssshh sound immensly but this frkn car is awesome and I LOVE IT !!!!!!!

The car looks awesome! I like the carbon fiber and the emblems. It's still very clean.

Time to atleast lower it a little. As long as you dont slam it, you should be able to retain some of the lexus ride quality.

Can't say I am a fan of the wheels at all.

They just seem like the type of wheels every "ricer" guy puts on his car when they leave the ride hide stock and have ugly fender gap. Black with polished lip is just too overdone for my tastes. The emblems and the B pillars look awesome though.

I'm not completely sold on the rims but they will do until I can find the right combo to retsin my ride quality. Probably staggared 18,s in chrome n black like mesh or something similar But thanks for the pos comments. Tom
