Default ES330 makeover

I'm in the mood to upgrade some a few things on my car. I sold on new wheels and have considered MOMO 17" GTR wheels or chrome HP EVO wheels.

I haven't found a body kit in the US for my model yet, so I'll have to keep looking.

What do you guys think? Any suggestions? Any decent sources for parts? HELP!

The one thing I'm going to consider is the cost to makeover versus buying the new all wheel drive GS.

Talk to ClubLexus' preferred vendor, Carson Toyota/Lexus Parts. Ask for Bobby in parts and he can help you out with JDM stuff. You can also talk to my friend John (JunctionGS) with Junction Produce/VIPStylecars.com. Both sources are great for your JDM needs.

Thank you for your response. I'll be going overseas this November to find some car parts as well.

I would jump from 16-18. The ES ride is comfy enough to do so and it will look better.

I'm a little unsure about the 18's only because I put a lot of miles on my car. So far, 17's seem to have the best balance of tire life and cost versus the 18's. The one thing that worries me the most about 18's is the ride comfort.
