Actually it is all reupholstered, none of what you see there is the original Lexus leather. Its shown the same way in Garson's Catalog. When I ordered the seats I could actually choose all the details like which style/color leather, what color stitching, single or double stitching, etc. I could have made it all one style leather but personally I like the 2-tone black, it ads a little contrast and breaks it up a bit

One step at a time LOL I'm really surprised I haven't bought it sooner because the LCD display on my OEM stereo half of them dont even work

Thanks.... I think LOL. Ya I kinda know what you mean. But at the same time to I'm not planning to GTE swap nor turbo/supercharger kit. So I don't need any heavy stopping power, just something to up it a bit. But we'll see.

Ya we'll see. It might just be temporary until I get something better.

Don't forget the stainless steel brake lines.

Also, you may want to rebuild the calipers prior to installation.

Yup, I'll be getting SS brake lines and full rebuild kit. The calipers are currently stripped because they're going out for power coating soon.

Just did a photo shoot with a friend I recently got in contact with. Enjoy! (Desktop sizes available upon request)

Next I'll be installing my JP grille, puddle lights, illuminated door sills, LS brakes and RCA's. Gotta get 'em in and do a shoot before I storage it for winter.

EDIT: For those who want desktop sizes leave your email and which # you want in this thread. DO NOT PM! my mail box is getting packed
