Default New SC430 owner




Just purchased my SC430 in Orlando and drove in back to south Florida a couple wks ago. Wanted to post pics but been slacking. Put new tires on her (got rid of those noisey run flats) and installed a new in-dash radio (also upgraded the 6x9's and stock sub) and changed the license plate light to led bc it was the easiest light to change out. Def more upgrades to come. Loving the the ride, never got so many compliments on a car before lol. Love this forum, was reading about these cars a lot on CL for awhile before deciding to get one. You guys really know you're ****!!!

Congrats !!! Welcome to the club. Nice Kenwood !!!!

Remember to change out interior lights to LEDs, trunk lights also. I also changed door lights to shadow Lexus Logo LEDs and love it.

BTW, 2002 or 2003 ?

Who cares about the cars, look at all those lawns as far as you can see . All green and manicured. With only three inches of rain here in southern most Southen California for the year (Jul-Jun) looks like the Calif drought has returned after a one year hiatus.

Welcome to the forum and congrats on the car! It looks great - and if you need some help with mods/questions/etc, I think you'll find CL has a great community, happy to help.

Thanks! Appreciate it. Btw, your SC430 looks beautiful. Are those led's I see in the grille? Nice touch! Is that a chrome grille also?

Thank you! Yea this was by far my favorite color combo. I think I got lucky bc there wasn't that many of this color combo available. Soon as I saw it I jumped lol.
