Cool

*Heh heh*

You'd think with all the fair warning, we'd have scared you away from doing it.

Enjoy your hollow trapezoids like the rest of us...

This thing is black and beautiful. It looks to be in awesome shape and only has 150k on the clock, with a clean CarFax, etc. I hope I'm not let down once I get over there and see it in person; it is not exactly a short drive to go see it.

About these 92-94 Windom tails: you've officially got me on the hunt for some of these now. I've got a search running on eBay. If anyone on here has had luck getting JDM stuff from some place other than eBay (*cough* like Vin_78 *cough*) please chime in here.

I'm pretty sure, and hopeful, that we scared the OP away from popping the badges off of the 92-96 tails, so Snicksnug's probably going to be looking for these too.

I hope you end up getting the SC! She sounds like a winner! Just be careful because there are some many mods available for it, and I know you can't resist the mod bug once it bites. Get ready to empty those pockets!

this is the exact reason why i never did it to my lights. If you wanna take off the residue, spray the area with Goo Gone. It works very well.

Yeah I agree sloowwwww should get a SC if he really wants another lexus. It's alot better than the ES250 that he was chasing after awhile back. The SC to me is just an uglier more luxurious twin to the supra!

Funny you mention it. It's the ES250 hunt that led me to the SC300. The ES250s have been SO hard to find, and the ones you find - well, Father Time hasn't been good to them 99% of the time. But during the search, I kept stumbling over SCs and GSs. Mainly I'm horribly confused right now - the GS and LS would be far more practical with 2 kiddos, and the SC would be loads of fun.

So I'm shopping all three right now, hoping that the PERFECT deal will help make the decision for me. Any advice from my CL bros on the purchase is appreciated as well. (I should probably start my own thread to help me work through this process, but I don't know where to put one and I'd rather help others than talk about ME anyway *lol*)
