Personally, I think a chrome VIP would look better. Something like this:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/1998-1999-2000-LEXUS-CELSIOR-LS-400-JDM-VIP-CHROME-GRILLE-NEW-LS400-/360045019182?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&hash=item53d45b002e
I picked up this black chrome on ebay for about $60.

Here is an Example of how it will look with the black grill and Vossens Cv1's. What you think.

Not feelin' it man. Also, if you're looking to tuck/flush 20s, you may want to consider air.

that's ur opinion, unless u have $3,000-$6,000 I can have so I can do that.... then if you don't like it then don't comment about my whip. PERIOD

there are many cars..wheels and other mods I don't care for, but I never comment on it because it makes no sense to tell someone i don't like what they have done with their money..they are modding their car to their taste not anyone else's..
