Brutal - Liberty Walk Bodykit & Airride on the Lexus LC500

As is known, Lexus is the exclusive luxury brand from Toyota and has the flagship coupé LC500 with great technology and sophisticated design at the start. As a competitor to the BMW 6 Series, Aston Martin DB11 or Jaguar F-Type, the Japanese convinces with a martial grille, a sweeping roof line and a striking silhouette. He is also on the all-new GA-L (Global architecture for luxury vehicles) Platform that serves as the basis for Lexus models with front-engine and rear-wheel drive. And Lexus likes to refer to the large coupe as "flawless". So should changes actually be made to the vehicle with the finely structured diabolo radiator grille, the squeezed LED headlights, the long bonnet, the dynamic, compact passenger compartment and the fat rear? Yup - absolutely!

And the ultimate example of what the result can look like is shown by this pitch black LC500 from Instagram user jaycraaay (Jerald Yutadcos). The vehicle was exhibited at the previous SEMA Auto Show 2019 and was one of the highlights there. The most striking feature is of course the Japanese Liberty Walk widebody kit with screwed fender flares, aggressive front splitter, sill swords, a powerful diffuser and a fixed Voltex carbon rear wing. The mentioned diffuser also houses a custom-made sports exhaust system from Armytrix, which delivers the soundscape that matches the optics with its blue-burnt tailpipes. With the new Liberty Walk components, the LC500 completely loses its delicate look and even a central air inlet (plus further openings right / left) came in the hood. And if you look closely, you will see that the rear-view mirrors also have nothing to do with the series. They come from the accessories and show themselves with the look of the Honda NSX-R.

After the installation of the body kit, the complete body of Impressive Wrap foiled in dark gray and of course a modified chassis was not missing. An Airride air suspension is installed which can be opened and lowered using an Air-Lift-Performance control. And then there is the beautiful wheelset. Here the choice fell on three-piece forged wheels from Rotiform in the dimensions 20 × 10,5 at the front and 20 × 12 at the rear. They are equipped with Toyo Tires R888r semislicks and provide a generous view of the LC500 sports brake system with the yellow painted calipers. And a lot has happened in the Japanese cabin too. The most striking features are the Kevlar-Carbon Bride Low Max sport seats with Takata sport belts, the Alcantara rear seat paneling and the studio RSR roll cage installed in the rear in white. A beautiful vehicle that shows that the filigree LC500 can mutate into an absolute badboy in king size if you want.
