Amazing how the colors have different names in different markets.
Liquid Platinum is called Sonic titanium here

Decided to install a camera! With our past experience with BlackVue, It seemed like a great fit once again

BlackVue DR650S-2CH

Looks good. How do you have it installed, hardwired?

Thanks!

Thanks!
Thanks! Hard wired

Super easy to install. We also installed the Power magic Pro. Which allows for continuous recording
It also allows you to set a voltage where the camera shuts off incase the battery gets low

Really wanted a clean looking license plate frame. After searching I realized there was not a lot of options for what I wanted. I came across this one. Not cheap but you get what you pay for.
Well made with carbon fiber composite


The Lexus collection “Carbon” license plate frame




Purchased a new trunk emblem and had it painted black! Also removed the GS

Very cool. I am looking to install a camera on my IS-F... does the rear camera up top distract/annoy you at all when you're driving?

Cool license plate frame! How do you secure it to prevent someone from just unscrewing it and taking it?

Thank You! The rear camera in no way distracts you. It's really small

If they want the plate that bad, I guess they can have it

Looks good with just the F emblem. I may have to do that to mines as well.

After using the Apexi throttle controller in other builds, we decided go with it once again. Yes, there is no power advantage with this unit but the throttle response is insane!

Apexi - Throttle controller






Decided to install the throttle controller button in the center console. There is a blank button for the rear window
shade that's a Perfect fit!
