Been on the low key with this but decided to throw up a thread.

Picked up a black on black 2006 LS430 back in November 2013, and been slowly upgrading it since.

picked up some youzealand drop blocks


ripped my interior apart to redo my whole audio system including a beatsonic double din kit


also swapped these to white LEDs


picked up my new grill and roof spoiler from the japan auctions


not bad right?


received my Waffes that were rebuild by VRwheels


testfitted the rears and almost wanted to cry


added my UAS bags to my newly purchased BC coils


this replaced my spare tire


some panels were sent to the shop for repaint but finished the air install


rears were tucking hard


whobemackin and i experimented the V1 of the figs arms


tires were finally mounted


after a lot of finessing, got the wheels to fit


got my Eurou lip kit from Japan and decided to testfit them

Looking good. Any specs on the speakers you used for your audio rebuild? I need to tear apart my whole audio system also.

I replaced my 4 speakers with 6.5 PRV 6mb200's and they sound amazing.

looks great. I really like how the theme is consistent with the kit, wheel, selection height of the car etc. Great job!

Your car looks even better now. That body kit is insane and I love the way the new Works look. I was thinking about getting a set of the Zeast for my LS but I wasn't sure how good it would look.

How difficult was it to install the new sound system? Stripping down an LS430 like that seems like it would be a hassle.
