I hate to keep bring things back from the dead but whatever happened to this? Is anyone looking at it?
Can we please get a group buy started on this?

We have ALOT of members here who are willing to buy this... hopefully we can get the ball rolling

I guess I'm persistent if not anything else. Legendary, can you please look into how we can get it? This is one mod that can upgrade our interior pretty easily for cheap. I'm sure there's quite alot of interest on this forum.

Count me in too... Wonder if a custom shop could make them and how many it would take for them to be profitable.

i'm currently working on the same project-i kind of put it on the sidelines for a while but maybe all of us can put our resources together and come up with a solution.maybe use newer model door sills and possible custom them to our car?

ok

this is a demo of some we had made last year for the Legend...
they wee a demo for fitness only, not the finished product...(I only say this since the wording was off a little)
the finished versions were on time.

If this is something we want, please let us make sure we follow CL guidelines regarding a vendor. I guess we just need to see if folks are interested and how many before I contact anyone

So, do you think we could have a choice between ones that say Lexus or SCxxx? What choices are there for lettering colors? I think the ones on the RX330 are backlit. Could this be an option also?

He can do chrome ones for slightly more, as he did have those last year.
Also, if Irecall he could do the backlit setup too.
At this point, can a mod let me know what I need to do - i.e. vendor costs for this company, or is it ok to collect the demand first?

legendary, talk to LS400 if you want to start a group buy on these. I'd be in for brushed aluminum ONLY (not backlit ro chrome)

Great that we have some movement since they do look good. I think I'l be in for the brush as a first choice and maybe chrome as a second depending on how the finished product would look. any suggestions as to pros and cons of either. Any idea what the cost difference might be between the two? Decisions, decisions, decisions. Any suggestions on what would look good on a 95 red stock 400? It would seem that if enough owners were interested, we might have alternatives available since the shop might make a master and use various blanks. Am I off base on this? This might not be the right forum but any Ideas /suggestions as to what lexus wheels (16 or 17 inch) would look good on it? I want to keep it basically stock but I'm not nuts over the 7 spoke stock rims.

Thanks for doing the research on the sill sand any suggestions that might be given.....

I'd be in for either finish... both would be acceptable to me.
I'd prefer it to say Lexus than SCXXX since that'd probably be more customization and cost.
If you do SCXXX, then what about SOARER..etc
back light is nice to have but depend on how much more. i'm okay with either.
