Default Big Red!

Whats up guys...

I know i have been meaning to post pics for quite sometime now so I will go ahead and give a rundown on where we are at with Big Red. Just got the car about 2 months ago and progession has been good. Still got a list of things to do. Here is a little run down of progression...

CLiCK IMAGES FOR LARGER VIEW

Here is the day i brought the car home. The paint was in real rough condition. Roof Molding strips were falling off, missing drivers side fender liner and a few other things..



that same weekend had a full wetsand, buff, and polish to revive the paint. Also painted the front grill matte black. The grill was black already, but a **** poor job with scratches all over..



Found a set of RX350 wheels in mint condition so snatched them up and slapped them on..



Then decided it was time to really update the look of the car with light aesthetic mods. Here is the final result... hope you guys enjoy more to come wtih a better camera..

new roof moldings
jp roof spoiler rep
jp trunk spoiler rep
tte lip rep











all comments are welcome!

If anyone is looking for these wheels and wants to trade for some staggered 18s or 19s please let me know.

Car is also lowered on eibachs, need some coilovers!
