Not really about heavy mods, kind of half joking there with the Fast & Furious! I drive at a reasonable speed all the time, maybe 7-10 miles over the limit. XD
But I may add something fancy to the already nice looking Navigation, like a second screen.

Yeah, I'm not putting any exhaust on there and probably not touching anything in the engine. The wheels I bought through my audio shop, they sized everything up for me. On my Honda, I rarely got messed with but I did have the occasional window tint ticket. But my Honda had a lip kit and ran a lot lower than my Lexus will since I went with the ISF conversion.

So far, the car seems to drive well! It feels like a slightly faster version of my Honda, which was a 4-cylinder. I'm still getting used to the smaller size, I feel like my head is hitting the roof sometimes. But it runs so smooth and quiet, I love the ride and the quickness of the accelerator on startup.

I had to replace my battery, and there's been a yellow Exclamation point on in my dashboard. I tried to take it for a smog check today so I can complete my registration, and he said I'd have to drive it about 50-100 miles to make it able to pass because of that. I've already driven it about 100 miles and the light is still on. Any ideas?

My key battery is low also, I'll have to replace that too. I assume it's not too difficult

An exclamation mark means that one (or more) of the tire psi is low so just take a psi reader or go to a local shell and pump up! Not related to replacing the battery.

Looks like you're busy getting work done. Are you going to be lowering it? I hope so. I see you're in So Cal and I know that it's illegal to have tinted tail lights too dark and I know everyone down there tints their front windows but damm that's dark. Be careful getting pulled over. You installing some beat?
