Found the perfect seat covers on an LS400 at the junkyard. Painted the leather beige so it fits and I also grabbed the floormatts, also dyed beige with vinyl spray paint.



A really cool guy sent me an LED kit cause I'm broke.

Those wheels really aren't considered sporty....they're still luxury wheels for the car.

Bee, what are are the offsets on your wheels?

Hello everyone, I've been on this sight for a while now but thought I should finally post some pics. Just took these yesterday.



1990 LS400. My daily currently. Trying to get major repairs out of the way before I start modding it. Hope you all enjoy!

Just picked up this '99, all original, with sat nav in my favorite dark blue color. 233k miles but was well taken care of for the most part. interior is in cherry condition. Most likely going to sell this one since I got it cheap and could use a bit of extra money after I give it some TLC. Then Then I got my pearl gray '95 daily driver that's my first ever LS with 170k miles. I feel spoiled by the '99 it's just sooooo much more buttery and luxurious in that thing and more power. But I've got a lot invested in my '95 like a completely new sound system, clear tail lights, complete new set of headlight lenses, window shades, and chrome trim. Wish I could keep both of them to be honest. Which one would you rather have?

Besides a small classy carbon fiber wing that I'm waiting for in the mail and a paintjob, I have my car pretty close to where I want it visually. Also sorted out the issues it was having so no more shaking, bucking, etc. Very happy with it.





Blue LEDs inside, blue fog lights outside.

In the first pic, you can see the fender flares I just mounted.



I bought the car with the rear already lowered a little so that's fine but I will be lowering the front. I'm not slamming it though - I want to keep functionality. Don't want to worry about speedbumps.

I want fatter tires in the back but not the front meaning I would have two different rims. Should look okay if I paint them to match and they're similar enough.

Suffice it to say, this isn't your average LS400. I love it though.

Recently I started seeing people checking it out at gas stations and stuff. But just the car itself is so amazing that I'm happier overall just having it. Bye people.

Bonus: Hiding button wires...

@Rokas
Why not run the wires properly so you can't see them? And mount the switch too? In fact why didn't you just mount the lights inward instead of on the outside? Would have looked much cleaner.

Here is a recent pic of my 90. Color is black jade. I completed a mini detail with a wash and buff wax. I was pretty happy with the results.

28 Years, Damn that looks good!
Very nice!
I'm getting around to repainting mine soon. Clear is peeling badly, and there are a few small scrapes and scratches (previous owners).

Why? Because I'm tired of everyone doing the same damn thing. The fog lights have to be in this spot and blah blah... Screw that.



Notice the fender flares that probably should be in a different position according to you? Hell maybe I'll slam it and VIP it like everyone else.

If you're in a low VIP car, try catching me... Your exhaust will probably fall off.

(I love VIP cars, don't get me wrong. But this is NOT a VIP car.)

And I will mount the switch properly when I get some time. Just wanted to get it all set up. Answer your question? I swear some LS400 people can't get out of this box they're in.

It's a minority though.



Me and StereoRob chilling. That's a very cool dude. Finally had time to meet him.

Edit: Why not hide the wires? Cause they look cool you dunce!

Edit 2: I apologise, you're not a dunce. But look at the pic of the lights. If I had the fogs sitting in the bumper in those lines, those colors would melt together. Like this, they're separate. My headlights are yellow and fogs blue. We cool? I don't want BS on these forums.
