Lexus LS460 2013 Conversion

Posted on June 20, 2016 by admin

Our LS460 project demo car began in 2013 as a 2010 Sport Package equipped model in Starfire Pearl white paint. Our goal was to build the car for the SEMA show that year. The car was outfitted with the Aimgain JUN VIP body kit with front fenders, roof and trunk spoilers. We also went with the Aimgain 21″ G-Luxe wheels and Airrunner On the Ground air suspension system.

2013

After a successful year of touring several California, Las Vegas, and Arizona car shows, the 2014 SEMA Show was around the corner. We were honored with the opportunity to take the car again, so the next phase began. We decided on a full custom PINK wrap with dark gray accents. Much of our inspiration came from the new Toyota Crown Hybrid that was offered in pink from the factory.

2014

Once again, after a year long successful show tour, we had the privilege of returning to the SEMA Show for a third year in a row. This time, we went with the biggest transformation yet. We took on the task of attempting and completing the first 2013+ full exterior conversion. Although there are many fine examples in Japan of 07-12 LS460s converted to 2013, there were none, as far as we knew, in North America. To top off the conversion, we decided to have it re-wrapped in a beautiful custom Satin Nero wrap with pink accents.

2015

As you can see, the 2013+ conversion completely transforms the car, it is hard to believe that it is the same car from 2014. Aside from the Aimgain JUN VIP GT body kit which consists of the front bumper, side skirts, rear bumper, front fenders, roof, trunk and hood spoiler, all other parts are OEM.

Kyoei’s LS460 & Prius Debut at SEMA show 2013

Posted on November 18, 2013 by admin

This year we built two cars for the 2013 SEMA Show in Las Vegas. Although the Prius and the LS460 are in classes of their own, the concept of “daily drivability” without lacking show caliber style and presence, was the same for both. The key phrase for the LS is “Clean and Classy VIP” and for the Prius “Hello to the world… Introducing new style”.

We are really appreciated our sponsors: Aimgain, Airrunner, Beat-Sonic, Clazzio, PoBoy Kustoms, Rustic Signs, VIPstylecars.com and Kyoei Auto Service

Almost exactly one year ago, we had the pleasure of meeting Tomi and Tuukka from Tuning FI magazine from Finland. They saw our LS400 in Las Vegas at the SEMA Show and they asked us if they could shoot it for their magazine. The issue came out and Tuning FI was kind enough to send us some copies. Big shoutout to them and a big thanks for the feature! We also want to take this opportunity to thank our sponsor for their support!
