Thats what I would do man. Look for one the same color. I would go with the AEM V2, and be done with what you have. I could get your AC to work with that setup. There is a thread on it. I am not sure on your current setup.

 

hey mr gerb. there are a few sc's in the local junkyards here. but iam hoping to find my color but iam sure iam not that lucky. going through the collision place I got the quote at (local car star) their price is $1,500.00

-body labor $530.00-10 hrs
-paint labor $470.00 9and hlf hrs
-paint supplies $300.00 9and half hrs

and if I can find everything I need at the junkyard that is $150.00*

that leaves 1350 and that the exact price of the aem pre-shipping

so heres what irks me. even with the freaking aem I still need a resistor for the injectors if I go low imped, wtf!!!

 

If that is a stock color in your SC , make a Wanted To Buy Add for a bumper / Fender with the same color. Give them the color code . There are tons of SC in this country being parted out. Am sure you will find one . You just have to pay for shipping but surely will be a lot less than $1500 that was quoted.... probably $500 at most. In fact if I am not mistaken one of my SC for parts is that color . I still have the fender but I hate shipping of big parts buddy . What is the color code of your car ? Check your driver's door jamb .

 

okay, will do. would the vin be useful??

 

There is a label on your driver door . Take a picture and post it here. It will tell us your car's color code , that is assuming you still have the original color of the car . The VIN can be decoded but that label on your door will tell us your color code.

 

I don't have the car with me. won't be around it till the 20th

 

oh ok.. is that a dark green colored car ? Is it still stock color ? What year is that car ?

 

its stock green.

ill pm you the vin.

 

I will check that VIN but here is a reference of lexus SC colors

Yours might be a 6M2 but will verify

thanks man!!

 

If only you needed a rear bumper. I still have one just sitting here. But it is white.

 

then go high imped........

 

I know but I already had these usdm mk4 tt injectors sitting around and I wanted to use them. now I just wasted monies.

 

I don't how I missed this thread? GL with your build sir!

well my insurance check came and luckily I scored a cheap excellent condition pair of headlights from the junkyard. also got a green bumper from the yard but the same car had a dent in the fender I needed. I have a member on club Lexus. that has one, but a pita to ship so keeping my eyes peeled for a oem green one in the mean time.

and contemplating on doing a tsx high beam conversion on these minty headlights.

in the meantime I finally received my black box.





this is basically 2 Honda boxes made into one. hence why a jumper cable is needed.





and the placement of this will be a challenge?? it comes with Velcro strips. iam prob going to hack up the oem plastic to make it fit. id rather wrap it in some damn plastic costing so much.
