Default She's back.

As some of you may have followed from my other posts, my hood had flown open, destroying the hood, grill, sunroof, windshield and roof, eventually I made progress little by little.... and now here is the final result of the car back to near 100% if only i could find my vacuum leak than I would consider the car at 100%.


Hood latch malfunction

Finished product, yes it’s purple........ No adjustments to the hood latch were made, it sealed perfect


The final result.

Thank you for saving a beautiful LS400. I'm sure you'll cherish her even more now after what she went through. Great job!

Thanks guys, yeah I'm happy its all one color and looking good. Now If only I could find my vac leak and make the suspension not suck. I'm thinking my 1 year old KYB shocks are crap, like everyone said they would be
