I agree that it doesn't look great on a Lexus. Now if you had a Civic, then anything goes, lol. Just remember, cheap parts look cheap. Save a little money up and do it right with OEM LED lights.Keep it clean and classy.

Just a joke bud. My first two cars were Hondas. The second one was a Civic. I have love for the Hondas but you can't disagree with the Mod scene for the average Honda driver. The clean JDM Honda folks are doin' it right!

Not my cup of tea but if you like it, I love it. The LED that fits that black triangle part looks better imo.

hey don't hate!!! LOL. i think it is pretty good alternative.

Did you guys checkout Philips DayLight LED strips?
http://www.daylight-led.com/cars/

They have 4 LED and 8 LED configurations.

LEFT is 4 LED

RIGHT is 8 LED

I like the 4 LED better... but i think we have to trim the panel. i think the DRL should be below the low beams...

but 8 LED configuration should be bolt-on. but more middle..

Yeah, I try not to be so cruel, but the OP did say, "What do you think?" That leaves the window wide open for people's opinions and you know what they say about opinions, lol.

OP, if your set on doing it, I like the pic of the led lights beside the fog lights better. It kinda ties them together and doesn't look so out of place. But, as I said before, I would scrap the idea. But then again, its not my car,....Its yours, so do what makes you happy because you are the one driving it.

If you could retrofit those inside your headlights it would look cleaner. Or just buy 2012 headlights.
