How did you make the volume **** into that aux and USB port? It's very cool I would like to do it on my car.
i bought a 6ft USB/aux kit from amazon. Then I took out the volume/temp **** control and literally cut it in half (carefully) with a dremel tool. Then i installed the cable into the power/volume hole.
Gloss black trim is definitely the right choice for your interior.
the gloss black is going to look very nice. I have a second set of trim that I'm going to send out to Ocarbon in Arizona based on Dmitry's recommendation. But that won't be for a while so gloss black will work temporarily.

thanks im definitely doing this when I get my new head unit sometime this week
Finally had a chance to install my gloss black trim. Here's some pics while I was doing it. Only took me about 65 minutes from start to finish.
Also took a couple pics before pulling into the garage. Here they are.
Well... it's finally done. The exterior and interior are exactly the way I want them. Got the black wood trim installed and blacked out the window trim this week. If you've been following from the beginning, it's been a crazy year. I bought this car in July 2016 to be a daily driver. Then I sold my black 1997 SC300. Then it all started. And it went fairly quickly. But here is the end result. Want to swap in a vvti 2jzgte this winter. Here's the current final result.
And that, ladies and gentlemen, is how you properly restore an SC back to it's brand-new original glory!
The car is looking fantastic Jimmy. If Lexus offered an F-Sport SC300 back in those days, this is how it would look like sitting on the showroom floor!

THANKS!
the inspiration for this build was a 2017 GS-F on the showroom floor! I even took the paint color swatch into the showroom to perfectly match the caliper color lol. Only thing I didn't try and replicate from
that car was the gray seats. I'm happy with how it turned out so far.
Man, I love this car!!! The interior looks great Jimmy....and that blue is stunning.
thank you Fadi. It was a fun car to restore. There are a few things I would have done differently knowing what I end through but for the most part this build was pretty straight forward. You coming to SC and coffee this morning?
