I agree, I can see a resemblance but the LEDs on the IS are more arranged in a swoosh than the Audi A4 LED arrangement.

I'm still waiting for the dealership to get the 2011 IS in...

Getting a bit off topic here, but I'm wondering if Sewell will sell the silver plastic inserts that surround the steering wheel buttons. I dont want to buy a whole new wheel, just the inserts.

I dont think so....

But it seems like that the new 2011 units got the clear projector lens instead of the foggy ones on the 2006-20??

I hope that someone can confirm this if they got them.

You can only get the DRL LED with the HID headlights.

LED means white right? Cuz some pics from lexus.com show a yellowish DRL, so it made me little confused.
Is it true that LED drl come with HID so u don't have to run HID kit.
