Nice and clean...looks to be in great condition.

Man thats really nice is that the original paint?

I knew you would convert over to the darkside (lexus)......lol!

Very nice LS....What year is that?

Also, what are the specs on the wheels? and what suspension do you have air? coilover?

wow thats very nice 
keep the 2 tone alive!

Damn, that's one clean LS.

clean LS, nice choice on D3S. I have the same

Hey i just saw your car last night. Haha. You should ride lower and be on that low game son.

Car looks clean! I still like how your car looks.

I love it!  Clean and Simple!  Keep it that way!

what the fuc... check your pm  
 
what's your wheel spec btw

i saw spotted you once around briarwood and goode. clean LS man, SD is doin it big with the VIP scene! :biggthumpup:

Looks gangster

See i told you your car was clean Ray. I love the way it is man. I can't stress that enough.

Yea, its the original paint. I think the last owner just had the front and rear repainted cause the clearcoat died like a lot of other LS ive seen. 

Wheel/tire specs are 

19x9 +15 R disk w/ 225/35/19 nankang ns2 -2.5* camber - front
19x10 +15 O disk w/ 235/35/19 federal 595 -3.75* camber - rear

Tanabe Air Cobra suspension. Doesnt go as low as tradition setup but planning to go with youzealand ss kit so it will sit an inch lower for the rim on fender look. Hopefully my car will be closer to where I wanna be for 08 with a kit and fresh paint etc.  Thanks for the comments.

Kevin: Im in the fitment game son. HAHA jk.

nice...what kind of grill is that?  havent seen you around my work lately man.  Your car would look sick with that youzealand Ss kit.  What kit are you looking at?

Yea, getting a promotion so I wont be around there as much. Ill probably be installing the online ordering system at you facility once we get that implemented. As of right now im thinking Macblick or something simple like wald or admiration.

Haha, just figured id do it more justice with a better camera. Probably not gonna take any more pics till I step my game up. Got my youzealand ss kit on order, you should get the front sskit and sskit plus for you ride. If it goes easy on mine ill help you out on yours. Meguiars NXT wax is the shit for any store bought synthetic wax, anyone should try it out. Ive converted a few people already.:biggthumpup:

I have the NXT spray on wax at home but too scared to use cause i'm not good with detailing. Haha.

Just today, I did a little overkill by adding a layer of Meguiar's #26 HiTech Yellow Wax on top of it. I'll get some pics up of the finished wax job from tomorrow's local car meet. Those pics look great. The car looks great the way it is, I wouldn't even worry about an aerokit with the way that looks.

Haha, yea I do the same sometimes too when im not lazy. I was reading the Meguiars archives and they were saying to do the same thing. The #26 gives it a deeper shine, plus it smells good too. I just do nxt spray wax inbetween, and claybar/color x when the time comes and do it all over again.

Damn man,for the original paint that's bad ass!looks good:biggthumpup:sometimes I wished I bought an LS.LS's looks so good with just a drop,rims and no kit.yours is a perfect example.

Car looks great! The paint looks pristine.:biggthumpup:

i just spotted your ride right now parked next to vetrerans park. i live right near the light on davies dr. the car looks wayyyyyyy better in person!!!! :biggthumpup: :biggthumpup:

Sorry to hijack your thread, I just thought maybe this could be used for reference on how great the NXT Tech Wax is.

I love it. Nothing beats slammed body. Just fresh and clean.. clean!

Looks good

What kind of work did you do to your fenders to make them fit? I know You said those were 19s but they look big on there, more like 20s. Looks good.

Thanks.:biggthumpup:

Its just tanabe air cobra with youzealand ss kit front and rear. You can see what it looks like on the Tanabe website. It came with front/back digital controller, plumbing, 3gal aluminum tank, and viair compressor.

Gangsta!!!!! damn bro you finally got the youzealand kit.  You must be lovin it!  Where did you get the kit from?

thats hella clean ! ...

Love the concept of the AirCobra! However I hate the price.

I dont think you should get a kit, looks spot on as it stands!

nice

That's one clean LS. Love the 2tone. I don't think you should get a kit either. It's so clean as is.

nice... very nice.  i like it kitless.

it's very clean as is but a kit will just up it soooo much!

car looks good. you always had nice wheel selection on the s14, but this car makes the s14 look like  a little kid car! a kit would make the car super complete, but it does look really hot right now!

beautiful car.......... I don't think it needs a kit either........... sexy as is.

A little update. New wheels for those that havent seen them yet. Test fitting new aero too. Time for new paint soon too. And yes, the lip is resting on the ground hah.:pat::biggthumpup:
