thats the high octone stuff isnt it? 100RON (but we have different RON's between UK and US). Its available in Europe, but not the UK. Strange its on sale - I'm expecting to see it in the UK at a premium price (which would probably make you guys throw up :D )

very nice Stevie. ;) thats a nice interior combination mate - I like that a lot

your are right - its does clean up nice. not loving the bra myself - but the rest looks sweet (but then - I have a bias to black GS's :D )

looking good bud

superb! said it before about Sw03es's car - I love that colour, its beautiful. Lexus UK - we need this colour in the UK guys!

looking beautiful - you should be proud. who would look at that and think 13 years / 137k miles? certainly not me.

are you viewing the posts in outline mode? just below the "New Poll" / New Post" it says Outline · [ Standard ] · Linear+ Standard is the normal view - sounds like you are using outline mode

thats not loading properly for me - the page loads, but not the image :(

I dont mate and unfortunately Dave, who had the SC on his 430, does not frequent the UK boards at all any more, as he now drives a TVR (the Sagaris too - mmmmmmm). It will be very relaible, as all TTE stuff is. The TTE SC for the UK IS200 gives about a third more power. One of our members is pretty well connected at TTE - I can ask him to pop into this thread if you like? Will be good few days though, as he is offline at the moment moving house (from Germany to the UK)

paint stripper and q-tips are even cheaper :D

over in the UK - TTE do a supercharger kit for the GS430 - one of our members had it fitted (before he sold the car for a TVR). We have problems with getting TC / SC kits from the US - the LHD / RHD thing causes problems with fouling on various bits. but - if you are gonna do a lot of custom work anyway - may be worth looking into (although I suspect the exchange rate would make it very expensive) :(

Matt, the trim is chrome, however the slats are not. I think some Lexus models had a black grill and underneath was chrome <_< ← thats what I meant - I thought the MKII standard grill had chrome slats, and was painted black over the chrome. you remove the paint - chrome grill B)

I like it - think it makes the car look a bit more agressive

you can get them for the back - but they are bit too much for me - not really into stickers on the car the lil ones in the rear quarters are ok.

this one? its a TTE sports grill you can get it unpainted from L-TunedParts - $369

just for Neo ;) bit too close - and too blurry - damn I am a crap photogrpaher

isnt the standard grille chrome? cant you remove it - and have a chrome grill that way?

:chairshot: :chairshot: tell me about it mate they dont even look like 18's in those pics. plans are in place - will be on coilovers soon, with a pleasant drop. and then maybe that wheel arch gap will stop haunting my dreams I'll get a pic specifically of the rear quarter window for you mate ;) you see the one on the front lip?

thanks guys but where are your pics?

looking good fella! like them a lot ;)

hmmmm. I dont know enough about the vehicles. If they are more different than alike - then we'll have a new forum. However, if they are more alike than different - then we should keep everything in one place

My experiences are of the UK car - but - a friend of mine had an ML270 a few years ago. He "owned" it for maybe 7 months, but it spent more time in the dealers than on his drive. Not little problems either - major things. He could not wait to get shut of it - and buy an IS300 :D
