UPDATED PICTURES ON PG. 2!!

Hello guys, I don't post much on club lexus but I been lurking around. I decided to go with a whole new build away from the tc and bought a 1999 Lexus SC300. I bought the SC back in February of last year and was taking slow driving it as a daily. This year I'm buying more and more stuff for it and continuing on building it (bags, wheels, dying the interior, and car repaint.)

From this:


Starting:

Stock height and crap wheels from the previous owner.







Now:

I ordered my set of bags February of 2013 and received them just this week and had them installed, in the same week my wheels I ordered from VR Wheels came in!







Brushed Face



Test fit, I need spacers in the front. :/



Quick little photo I did with a bagged Accord and WRX:



Still adjusting and everything right, more updates to come!

How do you like the airlift setup?

I can already tell what wheels those are just from the bolts because I have the same rims.

V2 is amazing, I like it. It runs great.

The Scion look doped in the picture man. The SC is way toooooooo low for my taste. How does it ride with the new setup from the stock ride height and wheels?

Haha thanks, it is bagged so low won't be a problem but I do like driving the SC low. It rides still comfortable, if I get closer to stock height, too much psi in the bags make it stiff, pretty much rides like coilovers. I still have yet to put on the new wheels, tires should be in this week.
