Haha. I would, as long as they look colorful. I'm looking at the loud horns that the other thread mentions (for truck maybe). About to buy then repaint them and rocknroll.

Hmmm, barely use sunroof, hate bug guard. Window visor is better. I bought the window visors, but i had to return them because i had the pillars post trim and they did't fit unless i do some cutting on the visor.

Maybe if you are having trouble deciding what to add - There isn't much else needed. Less is more.

How about posting a rear view of your RX? I saw something chrome back there in one of your pics.

Totally Agreed, especially with the look of the RX 3 gen, shouldn't have any mod for the exterior. The reason i do the exterior mod (except interior lights are needed) is just for fun.

This is the nudge bar for the RX350 only available out of Lexus dealers in Australia. I actually contacted the guys at Carson Toyota (lsalazar@carsontoyota.com) and they quoted me a price of around $1000 bucks. About $300 of that is for shipping overseas from Australia. Try them and see what they come back with. If you're still interested, let me know. Maybe we can combine on our order and get better pricing!

The funny thing is I'm in CA on business (I live in NYC) and may stop by and pay those guys a visit this weekend. Their dealership is about 10 min from my hotel!

Sorry to bump an old thread.

I own a 2013 rx350 with front and rear parking sensors. I want to install a barrier on my bumper whether it is metal or plastic since drivers cant park here. I have a question regarding the parking sensors. Do you guys disable your parking sensors after your barriers are installed?

I have asked multiple body shops and they stated that a metal tube bar could be installed in the rear without the sensors going off. The problem is in the front as most bars would hover over the sensor. I really dont want to disable my parking sensors. I have found this nudge bar that looks like it will not cover the sensors.

Has anyone with parking sensors in the front have installed it without problems? Do you have any other barrier alternatives? How does this affect your pre and post MPG?

Thanks.
