SC430, the wood actually matches fairly well and is the best that I'll ever hope for

I'm assuming you're talking about the mirror covers? They're from fleabay. And the SC wheel is a direct bolt on, airbag is a whole nother story but this one I have was also a direct bolt on.

Wow your lights are so clean what did you use to clean them? I used some cleaning solvent that required wet sanding and stuff but it's still yellow. Beautiful car.

I just use a Porter Cable with PlastX. It's not great but it helps. If yours are still yellow, it may be on the inside. There's a DIY thread on here that will guide you through opening them up so you can clean up the inner lens.

Default Beautiful cars

I just recently sold my beloved mint condition, 2005 Nighthawk Black Pearl Acura TL 6 speed with Navigation. I bought it with 1720 miles in 2006. The previous owner opted for the full factory installed A-spec edition, Comptech catback exhaust and short shifter. I installed the Fujita CAI and upgraded to the highly sought after 2004 A-spec wheels that were 18x8.5 and had 255/40/18 Michelin Pilot Sport tires on it. God I miss that car. I just recently re-acquired my deceased father's 1998 Lexus Sc400 that I bought him in 2007. It too was black on black, but the Ebay pictures hid a lot of the damage. I ended up painting it 98 Toyota Supra Quicksilver. Love the car. Deathly afraid of what my MI winters have in store for me in this rear wheel drive car with no Traction Control.
