Default 01 GS430 Ground Dweller

Ok here we go again. Lol.
This is a link to my old build thread.

This is my new build thread.
I got the bone stock GS430 less then a week ago. And my goals are to transfer all the good things from my GS300 to this 430. Here's the first pictures of my Ground Dweller.

Sorry no post for awhile. Got pneumonia for months ago and it kicked my ***.

Just before I got sick I got the whole interior swapped out and did a custom two tone interior.

This was before the swap.

The first steering wheel was 320mm and it was to small looking. So I got a 350mm steering wheel.

Three weeks ago started breaking my wheels apart again to stripe them down and take off pealing chrome and then polish.

First step tear apart wheels.

That interior is awesome, I was actually considering a full interior swap later on down the road if I could find a good donor car. I like mixing and matching, though. Looks awesome. I'm also doing all my trim black chrome, can't believe you beat me to it
