NEW LEXUS IS300 Project **almost finished pics pg 3** - flares/paint job/custom trunk

Here is a project I've been working on for the past year..... All the body work was completed last week and it is off to Maryland to get turbo'ed at SRT - Swift Racing Technologies.

I put on a body kit imported from Japan and molded flares on for the 18x10'' wheels wrapped in 285/35/18 tires.

Hope you guys like the pictures. The car should be completely done some time this month.

Now to the pics... Here are the before pictures of when I bought the car:




Here is the progress so far:

Shame I am too poor.
