Default oh hai.

hows it going everybody. its truly has been a while since i've last posted. been busy with school/work/life, just like everyone else in the world. been looking for a replacement daily since my 5 series is making its way into becoming a full out race car. a few days back i made a deal with a coworker on buying her 1993 LS400. its in ok condition with body work being a major issue. got a few dents, probably worst case comes, it'll need a respray. but i'm picking it up tomorrow hopefully and i should be once again a clublexus member ,lol. happy holidays!

yeah i didn't believe her at first, but holy crap, when i took a peak inside, black leather, and the paint was black. btw, anyone know where i can find a LS400 Hood in black? the one that is coming with the car is faded and instead of respray i rather swap.

Just buff it out, should bring the life back into the clearcoat of the hood.

Congrats on the purchase.

no doubt, definatly will get at you, joe. i cannot stand faded stuff. the roof needs work, but thats alot harder to replace...., but yeah, will do. i gotta get a few new cosmetic pieces, the car was basically tortured cosmetically. but my old BMW was the same way, so i think i can restore this bad boy.
