Official LS Picture Thread

Yea. That guy used a different brand of vinyl (actually one not designed for vehicles).

The one I got is technically matte black, but it has a kind of satin or darker deepness to it. When I'm home from work I'll post a photo from the exact stuff I got, applied on a MB.
 
It is Oracal 970RA. I researched this a lot and this is the best quality stuff and had great reviews for application. I came across a steal of a deal on this and had to pull the trigger.
Oracal huh? .. no 3M? Maybe you should start a new thread bc this one might get tore up with this discussion lol. Good luck!
 
Several shots I wish I had had time to take for the calendar. Matbe next year.

Nice I like the look of the chrome with the red. They kinda look like Alax's volvo wheels
 
Wow, looks great! I know you aren't a huge fan of the color, but it surely fits the car.

You can buy it haha ! You need a new project anyway. It's an 04 32k nav,thx,reverse sensors,hid,side airbags,blk leather. It'll probably be for sale before the end of the year.

Hey guys...new to the site. Browsed through many of the pages....very nice rides! Im about to pull the trigger on a 02 LS V8 96k miles. I took a few pics to get some thoughts. Sorry they are so dark... ill have more once I get it.

First question......as you can see the lower grill is missing a piece on the right side. Any suggestions on grill type to replace it? Maybe Mclaren for top and bottom?

Also as you can tell the prior owner went ahead and painted black which is what I would look to do anyways.

If you have the luck to find a McClaren Grille, go buy a plane ticket and fly to Vegas with it. They are rare.

Most people who are replacing the grille update it with an LSE grille or look to paint it. Quite a few people have swapped front bumpers on a Gen I to a Gen II LSE or an '06 LS front bumper. Completely changes the look. The grille is swappable without a problem. The bumper from a gen II LSE, or '06 LS will leave a gap between your headlights and bumper without proper brackets I do believe. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Is grille and rear surround paint matched? Nice. Anyways welcome to LVC. Perhaps for the sake of this thread post your questions in a thread and utilize the search function.

Finally, welcome to LVC. Lot's of very wise individuals on here.

It's not the brackets it is the headlights themselves. The only way to remove the gap is to switch over to 2nd gen headlights at the same time
 
It's all coming clear with the visual aid. I had no idea what they were talking about before lol.
 
UGHH OHH!

T-money found what he was lookin' for.. :)

06 black/ black. absolutely loaded up.
thx, nav, sunroof, reverse sensors, hid's, and heated rear seats! woo hoo.,.

Ill still watch the market and if i see a lower mileage one for a good deal probably might get switch. some of the pics from the add.. did i mention it was close to home?? an hour and a half away.. ive owned 4 ls's now and this was the first one purchased in the state i live in lol.. lucky day 11-11-11 :)

wow you must have some real deep pockets!

Nice LS, glad you found what you were looking for (mostly).

Not nearly deep enough. Well I ruined the first one like 2.5 years ago. And insurance appraised it as being worth 5k more then I paid so it paid off my loan and bought a new one. Then this last one they also appraised it as 4k over what I paid. And the LSE I had my father just decided he does not want to see it sold so he's going to pay me for it. And so I got a loan on this last one. Only a 6k one. And I have 12k left which should be just enough for my 03 aviator kitty hawk as my winter car as soon as I can find one. So hopefully soon I'll have a loaded 06 ls and a loaded 03 aviator and only a 6k loan which should be paid off within 2 years. Wish I didn't have a loan. But in order to get 2 cars pretty sure it was necessary.

I can't wait to find an aviator and throw this ls in storage until march then get it out and do all the mods I want to to it right away so I can enjoy. Haha.
