In between the wheel swaps, saving money and installing a set of rare dinosaur-egg coilovers, Chris and Joan took their ride to A&A Autoworks, the body shop that made the exterior look like a masterpiece sculpture. The first add-on was the Insurance body kit. Insurance body kits are as coveted as they are beautiful. They mainly focus on making kits for the Lexus family of rides, featuring massive front ends and TGIF-type flares. To add more excitement to the chassis, they also decided to add a Junction Produce rear wing. And if you haven't heard of Junction Produce before, you're not alone. This company also makes kits and body parts exclusive to luxury cars like Lexus and Infiniti. The finishing touch to this pretty ride comes courtesy of a custom black with gold pearl paint job, putting it all together like a game of Clue.
If you notice and question the lack of engine and interior modifications, then you're not familiar with rule number 4,080 of the VIP Modifications Bible, which states you leave alone the engine and interior because it's all about exterior looks. If you're still confused, go to your local Barnes & Noble and get the VIP Modifications Bible, despite the fact it doesn't even exist.
With that being said, it's nearly impossible to write and talk about Chris and Joan's ride. Because when you look at it, you immediately know it's major and hyphy all rolled into one. For starters, it's a Lexus. For seconders, if there is such a word, it's one of the best looking Lexuses you'll ever see on this side of the Pacific Ocean. "Everything on this car is unique," Chris adds, "We have not seen anyone with this full setup yet. And we're proud of that!"
