Oh, no. I would never do that. This was an extra set I had that came out of a '00 Platinum. The Platinum GS's have a different wood grain to begin with. I was going to have them carbon wrapped but figured I would try something different with them first and see how I like it.

Here is another project I have been working on.

I mentioned that they should work in this thread
https://www.clublexus.com/forums/gs-...rs-jzs161.html

Right now I'm using a LX470 power folding mirror switch to select & control IN/OUT and a momentary switch to power ON/OFF.

Not really but you know how it goes. If JP comes to work with wheels to trade & cash in hand it might happen. I'm tryin to get him to do work on the 1G.

I got 'em from my boy Al. He has moved on to the 3G. You can probably get them from any of our vendors or find them online.

Just a small update.

Finaly found a L-Sportline Roof Spoiler and installed my freshly rebuilt HKS Hipermax LS coilovers. They have only been on the car for two days and so far I love them. I could probably drop the car another inch or so with these coilovers but I'm not into the tucked/slammed look. They will probably settle and drop the car a little lower in the next few weeks. I took these pics after we left the Mt. Vernon meet to get something to eat. The green LS is Joe's (Greenvy2k) & the Red NA-T SC3 is his brother Jeff's (Amorphous).

I also passed 200k miles a little while ago.

Did you even paint your dome light and rear view mirror? If so the whole black interior looks amazing.
