I am thinking in painting my SC430 in Graphite Gray (IS300)

ML'SC4.3

what do you guys think? should i do it, i am thinking in doing this cause there is no SC430 in this color, it is not available, plus i can put lots and lots of CF stuff and it will look cool. (when they start making stuff for it)
and steve dave or who ever did the photoshop for the IS300 with SC wheels, maybe you can make one for my car with the Graphite IS300 color, to see what it looks like......

I think CF will look good with Silver anyways. Keep in mind that if you paint your car a different color, you might take a big loss on your car's resale value...

Dude....Don't do it....BIG TIME Loss in Value for your Car.

A) People will think it was in a HUGE accident and you had to cover it up by repainting the whole car

B) No paint shop can match the quality paint job that Lexus puts on.

C) Your car is hot.....Don't ooops it up.

I have seen many SC430 with Dubs Dropped and bang'n

If I were you* I'd Slap some 20" Chrome Rims and a set of Coilovers and be done with it.

i know it loses lots of value, i work for longo lexus, but i am just bored with it, i should have gotten a black one, damn. and also i don't know how CF stuff whould look on silver.

by the way steve, that's the body kit i want for my car, i think is from executive or something like that, i am thinking in maybe upgrading to 20", i have 19" on mine, the only thing is that, i really like my rims, they are RH C2, they just don't make them in 20" trust me, i was at the wheel shop for like 5 hours, trying to see whichone i wanted for my car, the sales guy was about to kill me......

did you photoshop my ride jason? anyways, it looks BAD MAN..!!! shiet, i know it will kill my resale value... but man.... it looks good... i want to do it, i am going to ask how much it will cost me, our bodyshop here at longo is good they can match the color real well, i know, i have seen it, i had a customer that has a IS300 graphite that got into an accident, and when they did a real good job, looks like new......
