MobbinVIP LS430 Build

Hey everyone, as most of you know I use to own a 2gen GS3. Sold her a few months back & picked up the LS430ul that was for sale here on the forums.
Since the car already came with the Fabulous Kit & 20" Fabulous Profounds I only had it for a month before it went under the knife.
Now that we are down to the final details of finished her up I thought its time to post it up here on VSC even though I already start a thread on CL, but CL guys don't care for VIP Style.:pat:
For those who are going to say I bought this & not built it...leave now because I don't have the time for stupid comments.

On to the Build!

This is how I picked it up from the prev owner

As you can see the Fabulous front bumper is not on because it was broken & as for the wheels
they look great in pic's but are cracked/bent/scratched/faded...So I took them off & rolled on the stock wheels
Heres a pic before I dropped them off...next time you see them...well you will have to wait:shrug:

I did the install myself & surprisingly, it was very easy! 
Only pain was taking the backseats out to get to the rear suspension.

Need to do some final touches here & there, along with an alignment, then I can say the exterior is 90% done.

Some updates...

My old thread got bumped on CL, so might as well bump it here too!


Since my last post...
-Wheels were refinished(thanks to a shop that messed up one wheel & had to redo them all)

-Smoked Headlights & fog lights

-Swapped out my air management for the Air Lift v2 AutoPilot

-Had paint-correction/detail done which really made the paint pop

-Replaced the Tie Rod ends, inner & outer, left & right, & lower control arm bushings. After I went to get an alignment, but shop was unable to adjust my camber since the bolt are seized, I went to the Lexus dealer & ordered new Camber bolts to be able to adjust my camber.

-Swapped out the OEM grill for a chrome emblemless grill

Guess that is pretty much it for now.


The LS was just featured on Canibeat.com, go check out the amazing photos!
