I have a theory on those side makers. Personally I like them, but I haven't seen any IRL, only in pictures. If I knew that they come standard on UAE (and other) ISs, then I would have made that a condition of my factory order. Seriously, if you go to a dealer and say, "I'll order an IS350 and give you a deposit on it right now, but it must include FACTORY installed side markers" they're going to tell you they have no idea what you're talking about. Show them a picture and tell them what's up, and have them contact someone that can get it done. Will they make a few phone calls to sell a $45k car? Absolutely.

About the OP's car, I like it. I like the plain stock looks mostly, but this is classy IMO. Thumbs up!

Those TOM'S wheels are very nice, although ill prefer them painted instead of polished, but on a black car looks really good the way they come.

Man, play it safe, by the tag and keep like 100dhs in there, why take the risk? I know its ugly , bas its not worth paying the 400dhs fines. Better to be safe than sorry

Btw my car had the same problem, the saliks were not catching me, then one day they added all of them together, but luckly i had bought the tag before the fines so they removed all my fines. Its not worth it IMO
