The passenger side rocker was smashed in, you could see daylight through the doorjam and there was lots of noise on the way home!

This is how it looked when I got it. There were no door gaps on the passenger side, the door itself was overlapping the rear quarter panel due to the A pillar being pushed back from the wreck.

Due to the car being sat up in Cleveland for roughly a year with exposure to the elements (due to no seal in the doorjam) the center console leather was all deteriorated, so I replaced it.

The previous owner was not gentle on these wheels, lots of curb rash on all four. The tires were also lumpy and old, a sure safety hazard and in need of replacement.

I wasn't a big fan of the gold center caps either, so I got some silver ones ordered for when I would get new tires.

I forgot to mention, I removed the wheel locks and installed genuine Lexus/Toyota lug nuts all around.

In order to get the door gap just right, we cut out a large piece and freed up the structure where the hinges mount, after lots of adjustments, we welded it in place.

We cut out the thickest layer of the rocker, as well as two thin layers of quarter panel in the corner to prepare the same piece from a donor car.
