Well Jeff, you are lucky though, your car is in such nice shape!

OK, I went to the shop, and the car is painted but needs power sand and buff, as well as a good bath.
Ohh well, I am still excited, can't wait till get it back so I can install my visors.

Nice! Do they make the 5zigen Fireball MEGA for the LS430? I think it would look great on your car.

I had 20' on the car before, I don't feel that much worse ride quality than stock, maybe it's because I have 19 inch + wheels for all my cars.
But if you hesitate about putting 20' on your ride for ride quality, I would say do it.
But stretching tires on wheel makes it scary to drive.
I bought the grill from member here, bonafyd, but I believe Crason Toyota sells them.
Hey Chrispy, I had 5 Zigen mega on both my SC and GS, but I think I might go just exhaust tip on this one, really don't wanna kill the quiet drive.

Your Car is....
Sweet... That color was the color I was looking for but I had a hard time finding it here in Texas. I ended up settling for black. Dig the kit, although I think I drive way too much to put a kit on my LS. I'd be scared to mess it up. Nice job, keep the pics coming.
