i say a red tape would have looked much better than the orange. It blends in. And also i noticed ur headlights look foggy. i Just "unfogged" mine. Looks soo much better and sharper

haha, i don't care for the few people that make asinine comments. Also it was expected. I explained in post one, some will hate, others won't care and few will like it.

Really helped a lot.

Here is mine "red lens"..Side view tho. (Due to the tape that got stuck on the buffer, so u can see little bit of the tape that came out).

The opinion that matters most is yours....but by posting here means your probably seeking approval by forum members.....you have to take the bad with the good...not everyones taste is identical....expect criticism by posting in a forum.

IMO The Corners Are Pretty Nice, I Like The Orange, But I'm Not Feeling Those Taillights.

Look at my post count, i've been here long enough and i generally do the criticizing... I'm not butthurt about this in the least, I DON'T CARE.

As per my first post, i state some will not like it, and i'm cool with that... i haven't lost any sleep over it, nor will I. Second, people can hate all they want, but those are the people that won't do as much as change the wheels on their cars...

Just keeping this section alive with some pics and random **** I do around the car. AKA my LED threads. I wasn't seeking approval at all, but a place to show how to do it and encourage others to actually do something to these cars that goes beyond buying 'Clear corners' from fleaBay

I was bored, got some vinyl, and kinda stuck with it since i didn't feel like pulling it off before winter. End of story.

I have to agree with 01LEXPL, some will like it, others wont, but you try something different and see what happens. It's always good to think outside the box and maybe something we do, might become the newest trend. 01 has been here long enough to know there will be haters, me and him have sometimes disagreed on things, but its all good. I have done some things on my car that 01 and other people didnt like and I ended up changing it. You take the good with the bad. I for one cannot drive a stock car, I always like to be an indivdual and customize to my taste and somewhat to the liking of others. I try and keep it in good taste, especially being a Lexus, dont want to rice it out. I am 41 years old and as you get to my age, you learn not to take things personally. I know there are a lot of young guys on here and everyone takes things personal and feelings get hurt and then you have these fueds. It's just a car fella's, it not your life, as long as your happy with it, thats all that matters.

I like the tip of the sword attitude. Not a huge fan but unique and I like that. I think that some folk here need to play some online video games like Call of duty especially on the xbox more than the ps3. Ill mod that not play but just listen ... if you want to get your feelings hurt. Ignorance is rising exponentially.

Seriously I'm liking the front, but just not feeling the tails--prefer the original look.
