Default Introducing...

Hey everyone, I've been on the forum for a few months now and finally snapped a few pictures of my car on my phone and figured I'd throw em up real quick.

1990 LS400, 137k miles



As you can see, the previous owner smacked a cone on the highway, kinda cracking the bumper a bit, all is well for now though.





Here are my plans (any feedback will be appreciated )
  • Megan Coilovers
  • SSR Viennas, 19x9 up front, 19x10 in back
  • Maybeee a body kit, very inbetween on this matter
  • Projector retrofit (clear lenses, etc)
  • JDM tail lights and front signal covers
  • full sound system, I already have a JVC receiver in there for now, but yeah, double-DIN receiver5.25" speakers all around, some sort of sub as well, tweeters, the works
  • 5% tint
  • pearl white paintjob
  • new exhaust from manifold back (removal of cats and resonators as well?, hmmm)
  • tons of Junction Produce swag on the inside
  • tons of JP stuff on the outside too (grill, hood mascot, etc)

That's about it for now, judging from the list, you can probably tell that I want to go for the VIP look, any advice or tips will be well appreciated!

Welcome to CL, sounds like you have some solid plans for the Lexo. Make sure you do your homework and check the little problem areas and regular maintenance for the first gen and get them taken care of if need be. Happy rollin bro!

97CE - thanks buddy

jcp2000 - any lowering? I have my heart nearly 100% set on those vienna dishes I stated in my first post, but those 3rd gens are nice too! the 460s right?

Trevorsls4 - They're sooo smooth, I get compliments on it all the time, the looks, the ride, everything. What year is yours?
