Default GS430-my new mod. completed
Hello everyone, been a while since I posted anything new about my car, Well I finally did it and installed a body kit. Just got it back from the body shop and I am extremely happy with the outcome.
I want to thank AZ Street Customs (Owner: Martin) for their hard work, attention to detail and customer service. I got quotes from over 6 different shops and though AZSC was not the lowest they were not the highest but in the end it was their experience that gave them my business and that decision (IMO) paid off, you be the judge! Okay on to the pics:

Here is how you may remember my car

Thanks guys for the feedback. They actually painted the whole car. I had some damage to my front driver fender, chips on the hood, minor damage to the rear bumper so I decided to have him paint the whole car. The body kit fit very snug, I am extremely please with how it looks. The pic that was posted on L-Tuned website did not do this kit justice. Saturday I'll have my tanabe exhaust installed, the nice big chrome tips should add a nice touch to the rear.

Storm-Now I need to build up my piggy bank again so I can get those fogs lights although I think I might be the only US 3rd gen Lexus with side markers (not sure).
