jamie i'd have kept that rover but the chasis & body were so rotten it was unbelievable, was just shy of 200k aswell

i've seen a few IS200's now with some real subtle mods and they do look great imo .. already started messing with this

Lexarse Lights

im not a massive fan of lexus lights .. even on a lexus but had seen a few of the sxe10 crew cars and altezza's with either smoked, LED or red tail lights .. which got me thinking i had some paint left over from tinting the lights on the corsa

Take a set of standard lights



scotch, mask and paint them



Lacquer and leave to cure



and fitted, looks much better imo

It makes you wonder why they even bothered to make them like they did. When what you have done is a million times better. Good work as per usual danny.

Agreed. No more fried egg look. Thought it wss a run around? But then i suppose what your doing is cheap enough and you got it for a good price to start with anyway.

Kept the Lex up untill a couple of weeks ago when i decided to part ex it for something a little newer.
Got £400 back from this which wasnt bad, had a couple of years cheap motoring out of it.

last pic of the is200



Decided to keep with Lexus and buy an '06 is250, Its a manual Se-L without the sat nav & reversing camera.
Full lexus service history and on 89k terrible phone pics but you get the idea

Previous owner must have decided his bus pass was better.

Looks nice, could look great with a few mods
