lookin good there joe! lovin the tt wheels, I just wish you left it/went lower than the out of the box height but i know you have a good reason for raising it, have you thought about maybe painting the ls400 emblem to match?

thanks Brandon, im thinking about lowering the fronts again lol. i just need to cut my fenders then i can roll around with them slammed. reason i raised them from the outtathebox height was cuz i could only turn half a rev on the steering wheel b4 the wheel hit the fender lol.

the emblem is black...but just the face of the LS400 is left gold but the sides are black like the others. think i should just paint it black? id like to thank steveski for sending me such a pristine emblem lol.
