Slowly Getting There

Getting there slowing. Removed the last of the chrome trim around the windows a few days ago. Only have the wheels left to get rid of. That happens monday.


Before, I de-chromed it and removed the last of the emblems.

Painted the bumper trim and rear surround last fall. Removed the last of the emblems too. Finally warmed up enough to get rid of the chrome trim around the windows.Forum image

On monday, I pick up a set of Jaguar 20" Sentas. So the old chrome 19" Konigs Prophets are history. For now, here is a photoshop of the Sentas on my LS.

Constructive feedback is apprecaited. And beofre anyone says. I know it needs to be lower.:shrug: Be one of the last things to do. Air-ride unit will set me back about $2500.

Interesting style. Don't have these cars in New Zealand. How wide are the 20's? what offsets etc. I reckon if you stick with 19's you will be able to go that extra bit lower when you do get the suspension setup.. But yeah. 20's could be cool. Just depends on the fitment. :) Will keep an eye on this.

Aftermarket lip-kit. Razzi made mine. But Extreme Dimensions markets an identical kit called the Duraflex/Racer kit. ED use my LS to market it on thier website and Ebay. I did get a small sponsorship deal with ED for use of my pictures.

Whats up? Haven't seen on LVC since the "issue" with the other member.:pat:

Hows the project coming along? I am hoping to see pics soon.

BTW another member "was" going to install the JT Evo kit. Instead, he decided to sell it and do the LSE frontend. I hope you are stilling planning on using th JT Evo kit. I REALLY want to see someone use that kit.

My LS will look almost exactly like this one. But mine is lowered with 20" Jaguar Sentas. So much for posting pictures. Site will not accpet my photbucket links and the pictures are to large to attach. Oh well.:pat:

Re: Slowly Getting There

Selling that kit was a good thing. The one you're eyeing now is SOOO much better, imo! Hope to see it completed soon :)

Btw when adding the pics from photobucket copy the "IMG code" field and just copy/paste, or when using the "Insert Image" option copy the direct link and remember to take the check mark off so the forum software doesn't try to retrieve the remote file...

Ohh new kit is nice, planning to change color or staying the same and plans on getting lower?

Keeping the Autumn Red OEM color. My LS will look a lot like this one. Several minor changes: mirrors, exhuast tips, taillights, wheels, grille, etc....
