Default Black SC

Finally got a chance to start working on cleaning up my SC. It's a 92 SC400. I'm hoping to get it repainted this winter. Looking to go Carbon Black but if the prices aren't right, I may settle for a repaint.

Mods so far:
Intake
Exhaust
6300K HID's
SC400 front lip
16" Lexus Chrome Wheels

Pictures are kinda fuzzy, they were taken in a rush on a camera phone because I wanted to see how they looked in photos.

I think I got it fixed, but now the sizes are messing up for some reason... LOL this is what I get for trying to upload photos after a long day... They should work now.

What you know about the Hampton parking pass? LOL I'm going to pharmacy grad school there. This was just the first round of battle with it- I spent about 3 hours doing the clay bar then wax kit.

It looks 100 times better than it used to. I didn't get to take the photos before I started working on it because my digicam was stolen and I borrowed a buddies. But if you look at your basic SC that's been sitting around for about 5-6 years in a junk yard exposed to the elements, it'll give you a great idea. The hood and front bumper were closer to grey when I started.

I'm glad everyone likes how it looks so far. I'm going to have the front tints redone in a week or two (going from 15% to 10%). Then I'm going to try to save up for some suspension mods to go on with the new paint job. Does anyone have any recommendations of a strut/spring combo or a coilover setup that keeps a relative ride comfort while improving handling?
