quick pics with new led reflectors in the rear bumper. wald spoiler will be on this week.
i made a DIY for the led reflectors broke my iphone that's the worse luck ever. all pics were lost which im kind of mad about because it made my install much longer taking pics.
driving on the BCs for a couple of days. these are the 14k/10k with the upgraded swift springs. at dampening at 9 front / 14 rear, it was very close to stock. stiff and harsh. im at 17 front/ 19 rear and its smooth as hell at this height. im very happy right now with ride quality, i have zero noises, clunks, or whatever. dead silent.
looks very good. I want to remove my rear bumper to change out the reflectors back to red. The previous owner had tinted them and i dont like it. Was it hard to remove and re-install?
Your car looks great! rims, drop, diffuser, reflectors, everything.
lol thanks. although im not a pioneer with pioneer with these mods, im glad there are nice Fs out there that gave me great ideas.

thanks. yes it's pretty easy. i did ti myself in about 20 mins since it was my first time taking if off and using manual tools. now if i had my handy little 10mm drill, i think i can take if off now in 5-8 mins by myself. i really love the way lexus designed how these bumpers attach on. simple but very sturdy. makes some of my previous cars look like cheap garbage.

thank you. means a lot. do you you like the current raked looked or should i go for more of a rake? im not a photographer , it looks better in person , your white car seem to show off the lines better than mine
I finally got my LED reflectors in and install was easy, just as you mentioned. I did take some pics when I was installing them. I'll try and create a DIY as soon as I find the time, just busy prepping the car for the show.
Sorry bro. My brother usually shoot my car. When I try to do it myself, I'm never satisfy with the outcome because its soo hard to get all the lines like you're saying. Lol. I would never post picture of what I take because it make my car look like crap. Lol. Boostftw here in CL also shoot my car and maybe he can chime in with some tips. GL.

Mine arrived last week as well.....
Can you describe the wiring connections you made when installing these?
I assume you just tap the existing brake harness for power.
Do they operate as running lights only or do they also work two way function like the brake lights?

Yes you just tap into the harness for the rear parking lights. You can wire them to work as brake lights or just to come on with the other lights. I should have taken a bunch of pics when I did mine lol.

I didnt use it as brake lights. just when the first acc light is one since i drive around with my LED runing lights in the front.
the connection i used is the harness right above the rear turn signals. I used the solid green wire as power (red on leds) and used the white wire with the black stripe as ground (black wire on the leds) and left the white wire unused (on the leds)
so now every time my front led headlight strips are on, the rear led reflectors are on
