New SC430 Owner cosmetic help!!
Hello all I recently bought a 2002 sc430 and would like to know what body kit/conversions, wheel fitment, and coil overs are on this lexus. I use to own a dc2 integra and can tell you all about b18s but this lexus thing is all new lol.
Yes these images are from Google but I really like the look of this car.
Thanks for your time and hope to hear from yall soon!

Yeah I've got these same photos on my desktop background. I am trying to mimic this style to some point. I will says that it has post2006 SC430 tail lights, headlights, and front bumper with high gloss blackout grille and blackout nose piece and trim along with high gloss blackout emblems. The front lip, side rails, and rear bumper are all DuraFlex, I believe (horrible fitment issues btw). The roof spoiler is either Tom's or Berhman, and the aftermarket hood is def Tom's. The antenna has also been modified to a stubby. At least that's what I've been able to piece together thus far. No idea about the rims or tires, nor the exhaust tips/kit, nor the brake kit. I would guess that since the wheel is on the right and the car has side marker lamps, that it is either Euro spec or JDM.

Hey I posted 3 replies and idk why they are not showing up, but anyways could the duraflex kit be a replica of another kit? They don't seem to match exactly as the sc430 mentioned. Any chance you have links to the parts? That front lip, sideskirts and rear are on point, and I can't seem to find anything like it.

ebay, "duraflex sc430." But as I said the entire front end is from a 2006+ OEM SC430. The owner must have changed the entire front bumper, grille, and headlights to the 2006+ type, and then added the duraflex kit. But the hood is def Tom's from Japan. http://www.tomsracing.co.jp/e/comp/l...c50/index.html
In any case, let me warn you. From what I've heard, Duraflex is a horrible fit for the SC430. It takes a lot of fiberglass/bondo work to make it fit and look good. That means expensive.

On another note... there are two possibilities here...
1) (The More Likely) This is a 2006+ model with the OEM tail lights, bumper, grille, etc... and the owner added a duraflex kit.
OR
2) it was a pre2006 and the owner updated with 2006+ parts and then the duraflex kit
I missed the obvious.. I was thinking zebras instead of horses. My b.
I haven't been able to find any owner info or anything for the car in these specific pictures. It says HIGHBEAM, but I can't even find any info on that company.
If you want to update your 2002 to this EXACT setup (as I do), that would mean buying an OEM 2006+ Bumper, Grille, Headlights, LED taillights, and then adding the Duraflex body kit. Plus purchasing the hood, the roof spoiler, emblems, and wheels/brake kit of your choice.
Hope that all makes sense. Pretty intimidating list. Believe me, I've been trying to accomplish all the above for two years now.
