You won't need to wait much longer. I just put insurance on the car yesterday. I should have everything installed in the next week or so.

Ya I kinda fluked out when I found those. I bought 'em off a member here and they were the perfect size and curve to the LS calipers. If I didn't get those I would have used a vinyl sticker cut out as a stencil and painted the lexus logo on and peel off the sticker.

I just installed the grille, visors, stereo, alarm and backup camera. I'm installing the new brakes this Monday. But the weather has been really $#!tty the past week. I'll snap some photos on Monday after the brake swap

Thanks for all the comments guys. I still think I have a long way to go before its complete but one step at a time

Yesterday on my day off, I got around to installing my new calipers, rotors and lines. I got lazy half way and only did the fronts. I'll have the rears done most like sometime over the upcoming long weekend. Here's a few photos for you fiends. You can see from the third photo the caliper cleared the spoke by only about 5mm. I guess I lucked out on that one

Yup, that's my car you see parked across the street If you need a hook up on tires, wheels or labor swing by. I always pass by your car too in Richmond because It's really close to my mechanics place. We should organize a spring/summer meet in the next month or so.

Thanks for the 2 year belated welcome LOL. I'm guessing you didn't read through the thread. It's come a long way since then. Believe it or not, this is what it was when I picked it up at the dealership.





AWW YEEEAH!!

LOL You're right. This photo was taken at Nissan Fest last weekend. All I got left to install are the illuminated door sills which was actually the first part I bought for the car 2 years ago and just never got around to installing them.

Looks dope! Also where did you buy your whole rotor kit and SS lines from? I'm doing my LS setup here soon and was just wondering.
