My first car was a...

1998 Citroen Saxo VTR

then

2001 Citroen Saxo VTS

1989 Peugeot 205 GTi 1.9

then to where I am now, 1999 Lexus IS200 Sport, I wanted the looks & the luxury!

PS - I still Own the Saxo VTS & 205 GTi now.

Nice. :o

lol @ the picture!

Thanks for the replies. I did expect a can of worms on this idea, it's just something I was toying with when I was out and about driving my van. Quite a few track cars do this kind of thing. I expect I will probably look like an idiot so I probably won't bother then.

WylieCoyote - I apologise if you really do find that offensive. In fairness it's the internet so peoples assumptions/opinions about me would not bother me in the slightest, but that's just me.

Original post edited to stop any bother.

Cheers tiger, that does look decent actually.

:D come off it! I know it's marmite and was just an idea. I just thought it may of looked fun on track. ;)

Rikos - It does sound silly yes, but sometimes this kind of thing can work! :)

TigerFish - Sounds cool, do you know what their username is, or a link to some pictures maybe?

Well, as some of you may know I purchased a nice tidy is200 sport in sapphire blue last month. Many ideas have shot through my head on what simple ways I can modify her, I want to be abit different and not spend the earth. I know absolutely nothing about the 'jap' scene as all I have ever owned is french hatches!

Plans are to lower her aided by the tein flex kit & wait for it! Replace the two rear wheels for some multispoke aftermarket jobbies, along the line of these...

OZ Super T's - but in luminous yellow/green like so...

Modeled by some lovely young lady.

So all in all, the standard IS 17's would stay on the front (possibly powdercoated black/anthracite) and the rears replaced by some whacky coloured multispoke 18's. Aswell as sitting low enough to lose the arch gap. This would simply be for shows & maybe track days, bot general road use, I would stay on my standard 17's for that.

So what do you guys think? Worth doing or will I look stupid?! :D

Looks like my lex. :D

Looks lovely! not a fan of the wheels at all though.

Hi Lucy. :)

Cheers lads, I thought that was the most likely thing they would be, i'll paint mine black then like the calipers!

Sorry for the OT bump, but can somebody please tell me what the two circular things are behind the grill that are painted red? I can see them on my IS and was curious as to what they are?

Standard colour or anthracite.

As above, the Sport is worth waiting for imo. I not long ago bought a T plate sport in order to evade paying inflated tax! :)

Ahh, I see, maybe I won't be mounting it like that then. :D Cheers!

Nice work Stav, can I just ask... how did you manage to mount your front plate like that? I may do the same.

Ry

My stickers arrived today, in white. :D

For that kind of budget you may be able to pick up a second hand Canon 10d/20d/350d. Good luck though!

lol @ the meir comments.

If I was to know earlier I would of done so. Ah well. :D

I have black calipers on a blue Lexus, Will get some new pictures up when my stickers arrive. B)

Cheers andy, ordered some! hopefully they will arrive tomorrow. :)

Ry

Nice one. Where can I buy these decals from though? are they still available? :|

Looking at the pic now thats what they have done, connected something to the nut and used a specific tool to remove it.
