  1. I did. I only used what was on the shelf at Halfords, primer, silver, and clear coat. I know it's not as robust as powder coating but I did enjoy the process and I'm happy with the result! I bought new tyres so it was much easier having the old ones removed first.
  2. Nice job, I did mine a few months ago after buying a used set, I did have the tyres taken off but all was fine inside. I must say though it really does make the whole job easier (and lighter) with tyres removed.
  3. No, it's just hard to forget something that was so pathetic, so bad it stayed in my memory along with tank tops and mullets!
  4. Easily explained, you clearly drove through an area being monitored by aliens and it caused a blip. I know it's true because it happened years ago on an episode of Dallas! 👽
  5. The JDM LS400 and 430 were called the Toyota Celsior, why I don't know. Mine being an import came with 17" wheels whereas the UK spec cars had 18". I replaced mine with wheels from a Lexus IS sold on this forum but still 17" which as you've discovered gives a better ride. Enjoy your LC500, it's an amazing looking car!
  6. Interesting what you say about your LS400 ride being so good. I've had many, many cars in my time, some new, some nearly new, but none (apart maybe from a Toyota Camry) have been such a pleasure to drive as my LS's.
  7. The process of programming a key is a strange system involving split second timing and a confusing set of steps. The vital component is the right key, regardless of the car it came from. The other essential component is a working master key, without that it simply won't work.
  8. That's what I did with my MK4, a key from eBay which cost me £25 and a key blank for about £4 and cut by a local key cutter for £8. The reprogramming took a few attempts but did work. The vital component is the correct key which isn't always easy to get, and a US one won't work.
