jess's lexus

255,000 miles and runs like a dream! I've put 7,000 on it myself! :)

I'm looking for a hood latch for a 90 ls400. Please let me know if you have one or know where to get one. Thank You

Great! Thats good to hear :) I honestly don't know a whole lot about cars, but I'm learning what I can. Do you think it does look repairable, and would you fix it if in the same position?

Here are some pics, as you can see in the 4th pic is the pinched hose I'm talking about. I sure hope someone can help us out.

:cries: :cries: :cries: :cries: :cries: :cries: :cries: :cries: :cries: :cries: :cries: :cries: . I bought my LS400 back in January and fell in love, seriously. Well, yesterday on the way to take my son to a dr's appt (he's 11 months and has been sick for a while) we got into an accident. Basically we were at a red light with a huge ford truck in front of us. The light turned green, we proceeded to accelerate and my son started coughing/choking and I turned my head for 3 seconds to see if he was ok in the backseat and the truck decided to slam on his brakes (still don't know the reason why). He ended up getting a few *scratches* on his bumper while my front end is damaged pretty well. I REALLY want to fix this but also need it done asap as I need to head back to work and currently have no transportation. My boyfriend has a pretty good knowledge of cars and has done a lot of work on our vehicles. But, money is sort of an issue as I don't have a lot to spend right now. We do have a few questions though and was hoping someone that has worked on or has had a similar experience could help out. I found someone online with a silver ls400 (93 i believe) willing to sell me a ton of parts I need for a great price. So far I need: Hood Bumper Grill Driver's side headlight assembly, corner light, fog light, turn signal Passenger's side fog light Possibly a new radiator (mine wasn't damaged but it didnt look like it was in that great of condition before) So far he's quoted me $500 for parts and $150 for shipping, does that seem reasonable? Also, the support bar-which is basically the top part of I guess the frame of the car is bent towards the car causing the hose/tube that connects to the radiator to be pinched off. If this wasn't pinched off my car would be driveable, it runs and drives now-just worried about the pinched hose. ALSO...it doesn't leak any fluids before or after the accident, I'm hoping this sounds promising? Any help or input would be very much appreciated-I love my car and want it back on the road asap. I'll post pics soon!

So the two fans in the front are the radiator fans, correct?

I don't think that is it. The box I am talking about is about 4 or 5 inches square and had labels on top like maybe a fuse box or more likely a relay box located under lights and behind bumper

I am working on my ls400 after a small accident and there is a electrical box in the bumper area on the drivers side, it is crushed and I need to know what this box is for and what it controls???? Help please. Thank you
