Since I owned a Lexus. Was on the LS400 forum back in 2006-09. Now I'm in a SC400

My old LS400


My new car 1997 SC400. Picked it up about 2 weeks ago

First day when I got the sc





A week Later I decided to do a DIY Lip. Heres what I used:

Paver Edging from Home Depot and some screws



How it Turned out




How i mounted it



A few days ago I picked up some SC430 wheels and Got my coilovers and spacers in



cx racing coilovers 14k/10k



32mm Spacers



Decided to Install everything on Saturday

Spacers



Coilovers



Rolled the fenders



test fit the wheels



Also Put in a new door lock actuator which was a pain to install



THE OUTCOME... Also went for a wash



Then a quick Shoot



Overall Great car to own and I'm happy to be back in a Lexus! A few more mods coming in the near future. Enjoy

how it currently sits

 

looking great, how much did that edging stuff cost? i wanna make my own lip and that stuff looks like it would be great as a base. can't wait to see more of this car, really clean.

 

looks great your car! great idea with the lip!

 

Thanks guys! The paver edging cost a little over $8 for 6ft.

 

nicely done

never thought those sc430 wheels would look so good on a SC400

 

So much better than before! I really like that HD front lip too!

Looking very nice!

 

Sweet ride and a quick sharp transformation Keep it up! What did you use for Sway bar end links?

 

Great stance, and the lip looks good too. I used something called the EZ Lip, its just stick on rubber except its made specifically for cars. Yours is a great alternative though (and $10 cheaper haha)

 

Just did 4 lock actuators on a 2008 Denali truck. The first one started failing @ 38k miles Lol I feel your pain on taking apart the door, though. Nice start man

 

Thanks guys! Sway bar links are still stock. Should I change them?

I've seen the ez lip on sc before and was gonna try it but wanted something that looked more oem. Also the material used on the paver edging is plastic/abs so it feels oem

 

I really like what you've done with the SC so far

 

Congrats on the SC! Looks to be in great condition

 

Looks fresh!
