the suspension is modified oem replacement parts... wanted to preserve most of the factory ride aside from the extra harshness of the thin tires..
Yes, i have HIDs... the lights aren't bad at all, it was noticeable the first 2 nights or so because i was use to how it was but now i dont even notice it...but looking at the car at night you cant tell its tint especially the fogs, hids look more purplish now...

thanks...basically yes, being that the headlight is very curved stand standard adhesive tint stick on better but is harder to mold, but static tint is easier to mold but doesnt stick near as well...with that said, standard adhesive tint is better, its just takes more time..
thanks, im on the other side on TN in the memphis area

if you want to give it a cleaner look take off the es350 and lexus badge just leave the lexus sign in the middle i had it done as soon as i got mine

bigbody305

also a black roof would go good with the black lights. As soon as i get some nice wheels im going to tint my tail lights. i did my roof black its not panaoramic

@bigbody did you paint the headlight housing from chrome to white? did you take appart the headlights yourself?

sorry to highjack... but now im thinking tint or paint out my headlights, i had done this to my previous car...

bigbody305

yeah its painted white, had it done at a shop along with my grill in white and the roof in black. also the turn signals inside the headlights r small but blacked out

imherenow

how did u paint the roof..can u take some pics (from top view) to see how it came out..i was always thinking to paint the roof too since my car colour is also white..how much did it cost..thanks

GoingHaam

personally i like the badges, i saw one in person without them, it looked kind of naked to me...
i like the black roof, was going to getit done the same time i got the tint done but never got around to it, now im undecided if im still going to do it... i like the head lights too, i never thought of that,looks really clean!... what kind of wheels r u thinking about doing?

Bigbod305,
Nice eye for detail!
I've always liked a black accented roof line. ie Corvettes with tinted windows with the "targa bar" painted black.

bigbody305:
props for the headlights, can you show us more pictures of your car (especially the headlights). I so wanna do the same now too, just not the roof.

I don't know, in my own opinion, if you don't have the pana roof, you don't have it. It is an option, you can pay some bucks to buy it. If you paint the roof black, it's like replicating it. However, if the ES did not have the pana roof option and if you paint it black, it is fair enough.

i haven't been on here for a while.... got new pics coming soon....

GoingHaam

not too much, just got the wheel painted, and removed the headlight tint

Looks 10x better with out the healight tint....I think rears should go as well you don't have any black on your car. Just my 2 cents though.

I'm all for color matching but that is too much white imo.

Does it look as good as you imagined?

I think if you toned down the wheels, the car would be stunning. But to each his own.

The color, tint, spoiler etc. look great, but the wheels seem to overwhelm the rest of the car.
