The car looked amazing at the slightly higher stance as well. I can understand dropping a little more for the show, but you gotta think about those bumpy LA freeways.lol

now that you have had the coilovers for a little while and have even lowered it more, what do you think of the ride quality??

i HIGHLY recommend them
they improved the ride quality a lot
i'm used to stiff suspension so when i first got the LS it felt really soft
i know it's a luxury car and that's expected but after installing the coilovers i could not drive it like a reg sports sedan...that's how good they felt to me

THanks for the feedback buddy. I would love to drop my car but I keep holding off. Things in my life are getting a little more complicated and busy. I just dont have time to be going back and fourth to shops to have little issues addressed or to be replacing tires frequently . I dont know what I am going to do. I will admit that the LS looks better at stock height with wheels than most other Lexus sedans

i would say the coilovers would be a great addition
one you set it and get alignment, you shouldn't have to really worry about anything...

so tim (LED guy) and i were going back and forth about doing my LS and F dash LEDs...
well, i finally had time to take apart the LS and get the parts to him...


orange towel for contrast... haha...


stock dash gauges:


After LED guy did his magic... needles to blue, temp and gas indicator blue, and turn signals white...which didn't come out in this pic...


hard to see here but the little LED lights above each physical button is now blue instead of green:




very subtle changes i know, but i like them a lot... i'm going to do the F soon and some other friends are going to get some crazy stuff done...

think pink...
