I'm not knocking on Lexus owners here because I like them and bad modding isn't restricted to one brand, but what's the deal with the badly fitting body kits, completely unmatched paint, extreme negative camber, and slammed ride height? What makes one think those things look good? I understand the fun of personalizing your ride, but this is nuts...

Many of the cars that I posted up were completely repainted.
It might look off in the pictures because they are 3 stage pearl paint. They are very tricky to match, even when the rest of the car was painted using the same paint from the same batch. Also, if the bumper or side skirts does not reflect light at the same angle as the adjacent panel, it will look different in pictures if you look hard enough. |

Wow, after reading that the gheyness factor for me went up about 4000%. I'd be 1000 times more proud to own a stock Prius than any of these "rides".

You can tell the ones in your pictures that were done properly. For example, I actually think the cars in pics 5 and 6 look good. I can appreciate the fact that some people really like the slammed on bags with crazy negative camber and blingtastic wheels look, even though it's not for me at all. I also understand that a lot of work and time went into these cars, so my apologies if my first post came across as too critical.

Most of the work on these cars was done by their owners themselves(i know of at least a few), not shops, so they take pride in their work even if its not up to other people's standards. I'm sure all you BMW guys make bank but thats not necessarily the case for all the lexus owners, especially the older generation SC's and GS's. considering those cars are almost a decade old.

i guess the point everyone is trying to make is regardless of the amount of work it takes or pride they have... if its bad, its bad simple as that.... can't put lipstick on a pig and pretend its a supermodel...

For example, many BMW purists believe everything designed from Chris Bangle and on is ugly(this includes E60, E85, E90, E92, E65 etc..) They believed he ruined the classic lines of BMW's. Obviously you don't agree with this do you? Because both of the cars listed in your stable were from when Bangle was head designer. |

Looking to sell my Lexus Gs400 this year. I am tired of the cutting & pasting trying to make it into something it is not. It still drives like garbage even with all the suspension mods, etc.

This car probably has seen more track time (yes the kind with the turns) than most of the crtitics on here against the Lexo's.... Its also outrun its fair share of E46/E36/ and even a few E92M and 335i coupes on the track..(SOW/BW/TH/LS) Some fitment is indeed not 100%, but neither are the Vorsteiner bumpers/ hoods (They require finessing to fit). |
