Default My LS460 Dropped on Tanabe Springs

Finally got the chance to install the tanabe springs, installation was a pain in the @$$ because you have to remove the rear seats but we managed to got it done. The ride still maintain stock-like suspension but without the gaps between the wheels and fender.

nice, looks really good! that youtube video on rear seat removal is giving me courage to do this myself. I have installed springs on three other cars, other than the power rear seats on this car, nothing too extra to worry about..i don't think anyway lol
