Default My new RX all blacked out.

So the old IS350 is out due to a baby on the way and the RX350 is in. Heres some new pics of my ride. Shes 2 days old.

2010 RX350
Lux package
Mark Levension
20" Lorenzo's
Tinted front windows
Yellow fogs
Smoked tail lights and bumper reflectors
De badged



The plan is to carbon out all the Chrome. Here is a Pic of the carbon trunk piece.



Heres a Pic of a sample fit of carbon & straight black to see what I like better. Hopefully next week I'll carbon all the chrome, front grill, doors, mirrors, front and rear "L" emblems.

looks great, but how do you get away with such dark window tints?

I agree needs to be 2" lower, but I haven't found any drop springs for these yet.

Probley the camera makes it look darker. The only windows that are not factory tint is the front driver and pass. windows. And they are matched to the rears.

And how thats easy its only 2 days old and it just got tinted today.

I'm not a fan of the rims. They look like they're missing hubcaps.

Very nice, but I would put carbon fiber all around the windows, cover all the chrome.

Looks good bud. Wouldn't have thought I'd say this but I guess the RX can be a nasty car too.

You swapped out the tires already? The Michelins that came at least on our RX are fantastic, and this isn't a performance car by any means, so I see no reason to get rid of fantastic a/s tires.

I love it! Not liking the yellow fogs though. They're useless.

I'm not a fan of black rims or the yellow fogs but the car surely looks different!!!
