Yeah I will be either looking for a soarer steering wheel. And removing the "lexus" emblem. The lip is the same one that I had on my green sc. It was shattered in about 4 pieces and missing a large chunk. The guy I bought the car from has a friend who does fiberglass for boats. So he was able to make it good as new.

I wasn't the one that did the swap and conversion. The previous owner did it. The motor is a stock soarer 1jz with only an hks intake, blitz bov, and act clutch (very aggressive and noisy). It still has the stock intercooler. The only upgrades I'll do to the motor is a front mount and exhaust. I want to concentrate more on the suspension and brakes. That's my philosophy. Suspension first.

Thanks for all the compliments.

Looks great! I'd try to get the 3-spoke Toyota wheel from the 98 Supra (also saw it in a friend's '98 Rav4), I love mine.
