The VIP thing i am still trying to wrap my head around but, its lot better than that SSC thread in the gallery. cut springs, retarded camber, having ngas.

Its still retarded camber, stretch tires, and air suspension. Just in VIP, the focal point is your fitment. That's like engine work for some imports etc etc...

i like to look at the whole composition of the car not just one aspect of it. and VIP is only about one aspect but, i do appreciate the effort that is involved to achieve their goal.

Might say screw getting a little truck to tow the Rucks if that guy takes a little less! The cluster doesn't work but thats common problem.Ez fix by a company on the Lex forum.Its only the back lighting that goes out.

Needs some little odd's and ends.The guy obviously didn't care about it anymore since he has an LS460.This 1 hadn't been driven in THREE years! The tags have been expired since early 08! Gonna need to run thin oil to free up the lifters from sitting so long.Got couple fuses out too and needs an alignment badly.Im happy over all since the body is pretty clean and the interior is clean too.Finally got an LS and with black interior!

Nice buy man! Get it repainted all black with suspension and some all chrome euroline dh's asap!!!! If you get it running good enough. I'd sell the IS and keep this. I'm watching wheelers dealers right now and they are redoing an old LS400.

What channel is that? I wanna see!!
They replaced the led radio lens with a new one since the old was messed up. Changed out the control arms. Repainted a few bits. Did an alignment with new wheels and clear markers. Car looks clean. They usually get a clean version of the car to compare to their purchase. The one they test drove was black on black and flawless. Stock though but flawless.
