Love the rims
Looks better on the SC than the GS. I wonder why mine doesn't have that much of a lip.

Has to be the hottest car on the Drift Scene R'now and by far the most popular Lexus ever!!

I hope that trend (reverse stickers) doesnt 'stick' ,but now that T&E has done it on his Soarer im sure there will be a million more to follow

Those are 11's on the back and 10's on the front. The letters backwards so the car matches on each side. They want the same letter at the same spot on each side. If you have T&E on both sides of the car then the E will be in the T's spot on the other side, therefore you just put it backwards and all of the graphics will be in the same exact spot on each side. I guess.

that car is great. if the stickers were removed, and the whole thing had the same paint scheme, and lose the wing, it would look great.
I'll be at the D1 event this weekend, and ill post pictures

oh yea, i have the Option video, where that car was competing with the s15 and s14, the car looked way better then. no stickers, just a kit, and hood, but the same mad horsepower.

Once again I'll miss this EVENT I think I may need to move soon!!

BTW: That car needs the stickers Sponsors kinda frown on ya if you dont run their logos after getting money from them. A lil diferrent from the average ricer out there.

Plus he owns Carmake T&E (Vertex,T-zero, etc,etc..) so he SHOULD have the biggest logos possible to promote his biz


I cant wait to make the D1 and rep for the U.S.
