  3. James, Thanks for your generous offer. After reading some of the posts I think I'll take the advice and replace them with regular lug-nuts. Thanks again!
  4. Thanks Tom, That's exactly what I need. Color: I am considering a red myself, but not sure the exact color red to use. I like the look of the red calipers on some of the vettes around town. But the gold looks good, if I had a gold package I'd be more gold-inclined. Thanks again, javapda :D
  5. KennyR - yes, I am new to this care and I LOVE my LS400. Thanks for your feedback!
  6. That's the best I have until I get it back up on jacks again.
  7. Ouch. Is there a better place to put stuff like this? When I wanted similar information I was unable to find it. Had something like this been available it would have helped me quite a bit. Thanks
  8. Has anyone have any experience painting their brake calipers? If so, what type of paint? What precautions taken? Favorite color for calipers?

  14. Does this rotor look worn? There are concentric rings. Is this normal? Or is it a sign of abnormal wear?
  15. Where can you get a replacement for lock nuts? Would anyone recommend replacing lock nuts with regular notes. Here is a photo showing the lock nut on the hub of my 1996 LS400:
  16. Does anyone know of a place to get an Engine Under Cover for a 1996 Lexus LS400? See the image below: Mine is weathered and time for replacement. Thanks
  17. Ouch, this is a tough crowd. But really, have any of you removed it? By pulling it out I'd like to avoid damaging the head-restraint position control mechanism. Thanks
  18. My 1996 LS-400 has motorized head-restraint (driver's side). How can the head restraint be removed? Thanks :)
  19. Anyone know where to find sheepskin headrest covers for the LS-400? Thanks B)
