    PLEASE DO NOT PUT AN ADJUSTABLE CF WING ON YOUR CAR!!!

    YOu have a sleek looking car - don't spoil it. At most that thing needs a lip spoiler along with some small vents for brakes etc and some bigger alloys but that is it. Look at the subtle differences of the Jag XKR to the XK8. A little tweak here and there and it looks meaner and more purposeful - your lexus requires tasteful modification.

    Oh yeah was gonna say this, but got distracted bu Boris's wing:

    when i was in school i designed a gas and piezo powered flame out for my exhaust for a laugh - ie detects when yo back of the accelerator and fires flames out the exhuast. I didn't make it because a) I had a 1.1 fiesta and b) i would have got nicked by the rozzers for having dangerous flames.

    If you want to mod a sc300, get a toyota soarer. This one is MINE to mod

    There are some cool looking CF wings, not those with sharp angles.

    Oh no! I see a soarer with a huge unpianted bodykit appearing on mp3car.com very soon! you know those ricers in corsas you were talking about before? Well if you get one of those corsas and stretch it a bit then i bet i could get it looking just like your car would end up looking like if you took in to a ricer store and said "do your worst, oh sorry i mean best, boys"

    EDIT: oh and it is LEXUS SOARER we have over here - seen loads of em but they are all imports.

    I am actually quite looking forward to seeing your car all ricer'd up! should be amusing - can i take the **** as much as i want?

    Unpainted bodyparts

    I usually laugh when I see a ricer... because I know that the kit actually decreases performance. I also love seeing FWD cars with wings

    It's called a Toyota Soarer, people just decide to rebadge them. I'm doing the opposite. The MKIII soarer has a red gryphon as an emblem, and I'm putting that on the front.


    I'm not gonna be ricing my car up. Last thing I'm doing is engine work. The car is at the mechanic's now getting the driver's side rear quarter panel and rear bumper repainted. No new body parts yet.

    Yeah but everyone i have seen has belonged to an old guy (sory but only old people drive cars like your in the UK as they are too big and expensive to run for us poor youngsters) and has had a gold Lexus badge. They are all Jap cars so maybe they are Lexus in Japan. The biggest toyota we have is the Avensis. After that they are Lexi.

    Yeh, I know. I always tend to see some old lady or guy driving my car

    The only Lexus in Japan is a Lexus SC430. You see Lexus Soarers in the UK because the importers rebadge them. I think someone sued because of false representation.

    [Edit]: In LA, we have youngsters in new G35s, benzes, and bimmers. Atleast the part were I live. The place were I bought the car were selling off their lot of Daewoos

    What color do you have?

    Funny thing is that I always confuse these ecorts and del sols with my car, becaues they have 4 lights up front.
