599 GTB with GTO upgrade and other stuff... Feedback and advice?

I think its a great idea. Would take off the GTO badge though.

 

looks good - but please remove the GTO badge.

What s/n is your 599?

 

Looking good Nico. That's one fine 599 you have there but I agree with others ... I would have opted not to put the GTO badge on it because ... it isn't a GTO and never will be. On the other hand ... it is one fine 599 GTB and there is nothing wrong with that

Thanks for the pics.

 

Always so diplomat M...

Nico , Your car is beautiful , but the GTO badge is "Abusé"

 

Great looking 599 GTB, no need for it to pretend to be something its not; it stands its own ground just fine. Great car.

 

Nico, le forum a voté a l'unanimité le removal du badge.

Je taquines....

Mais bon fais le quand meme ...

Sinon la photo ou la voiture est en marche est splendide.

J'espere pouvoir te rencontrer a un rassemblement. Etant donné que des 599 Grises avec des pieces GTO sa cours pas les rues je te reconnaitrais immediatement.

 

The car looks great, but I agree with others about the GTO badge.

 

You really should change the steel wheel bolts for Titanium ones.
Great looking car.

it looks great!

how much were the bumpers?

 

We Lexus enthusiasts have been interchanging model parts for many years. Now I see others catching on. Looks great. I'd do it too....minus the badging of course.

Looks hot!

 

Loving the car! Modify the car to your liking. In the end, you're the only one who wakes up every morning to this beauty

 

I agree with the leaving the badge off... Car looks great, keep the pictures coming.

 

car looks amazing. Do you mind sharing cost of all mods? I'm considering same project on red 599. [email protected]

 

around 20,000 Euros.

 

A couple months ago there was a Novitec that was lightly banged in the front. For the price, I was contemplating it. I was thinking of what I would do with it and the GTO bumpers are nicer IMO. So I would have gone that way. The car was sold when I called for it.

My idea would have been to remove the GTO badge. I don't know how it is applied though and realize there may be holes or removal may result in damage. As I look at the photos however, I had a different idea.

If it were mine I would consider changing the "O" to a "B". So that it would read "GTB". IMO it would be a neat thing to do. But alas, it's not my car.

Really nice car you have there.

Enjoy it in good health on the open roads.

 

Hi you say you've switched the exhaust, I know what I have to do but can you tell me did you wire it to the solenoid valve? in which case can you confirm where it is in the car

thanks

 

When you love you don't count !
