Default Respray pics after car was keyed

Here's some pics of my GS450h since I got it back from the shop. They had to respray the passenger side, do some body work to the drivers side fender, and install my Carson-tuned spoiler. Overall I'm happy with the outcome. I know the setting isn't really fit but I just wanted to show you guys how it all came out.

Looks good but some closer pics from the side would be better detail of the job.

Yeah, I'll reload some high res pics later. I had to compress the pics to get them to load but I compressed them too much and you can't even see the details.......

I really like those wheels!!! I just purchased a 2007 GS 350 AWD and I think that it is the same color as your car. I think that it is a good idea to respray the entire side because I rarely see that color match from panel to panel when one panel is done.

I've owned Toyota's before, but never a Lexus. I really like it so far in comparison to my last luxury car which was an Acura RL 3.5.

Can you tell me what model/type of window tint that you have??? It appears to have a different tint to it.

I can't seem to get any high res photos to load to CL. I even tried saving a bunch of photos as a 10MB .zip file (well under 100MB max) and couldn't get any to load.

What's the trick? I see people posting high res photos all the time on this forum.

yeah, i had a similar problem when i tried to upload hi res pics too. try using photobucket or tinypic (i use tinypic) as a host, then link the images back to here. that's what i do.

And for some reason I don't think it's a coincidence that a car such as yours got keyed. Just like it wasn't a coincidence that mine got keyed either. Too many haters in this world........
