Your lil one is gonna love your Lexus when he/she gets a little bigger (my daughter loves ours). My only suggestion would be that you could run some beefier tires on those stockies i.e. 245/35 or 245/40 or 235/40

Thanks guys shes getting there next couple of months will have more upgrades. a lot more if my ae86 sells.
been meaning to hold back on the front lip. Its an integra lip! just the new version.
the grill i made from a 2nd gen. Ive wondered why it hasnt got more attention as its the first thing that catches my eye.
Spacers will be here and installed this weekend as my new wheels wont be here till next month :'(

Spacers installed. Looks better but still doesn't quench my thirst for wheels. More progress tonight so I'll try to make another update but I figured I'd post this lit vid I took the other day.
