First, some background...I live in a rather urban area of Cincinnati. All I really see are Escolades with spinners on them or some other version of a 23 inch wheel. I will admit, I am a 100% white boy...pure as they come. I am also pretty understated and quiet. So I wanted something that was the farthest thing from 'Bling-Bling'.

It was my intent to create something that teased your eye to look at it, not rip your eye from the socket like all the ghetto cruisers. That is why I like to say...

I am the Anti-Bling...

The only piece of chrome I have on the exterior of the car is on the grill, and that will soon be replaced.

I think that I was fairly successful at my 'understated, clean' look. I really tried to keep the Lexus class of the car. But I will let you be the judge of that.

I know some of you may not like the gunmetal on the blue, but you have to take my setup into account. Along with the gunmetal wheels, I have the black pearl emblems and plate frame, black interior, black painted calipers, black pinstripe, and the black tails. The wheels really tie everything together, IMO.

Give me some feedback, good or bad...I dont care. I have worked hard on my baby, and I am proud of her.

For your viewing pleasure...

Due to the recent virtual car theft of my car, I am taking the details of my car down. Somebody tried to sell it on Ebay. :(






And finally I thought I would put a couple pics of two Asian beauties sunbathing by the lake. They are always willing to pose for a picture or two, so Phillzpeed and I take all the pics we can get.
Photogenic, arent they?

More and Better pics to come this spring! Especially once we have the regional IS300 meet in April.
