Custom front bar
Well, it's custom, only because I mixed it up a little, and gave it a spray here and there
What do you guys think??

Hmmm not a bad touch. Compliments the Lexus emblem.
Nice mod! Would have never thought of it myself.

So you avoided the huge temptation to remove that lower grill and bar and put a HUGE fake front-mounted intercooler down there?

Actually I've got a stainless steel transmission cooling intake mounted onto the radiator... you can see it behind the grill in the first picture... looks gangsta when the hoods up :P

Hmm, not really my taste. Make sure you clear coat that, or it will rub off on the next wax/wash.

+1. The chrome on my grill is coming off because I neglected to add clear coat. Don't let it happen to you.

It looks to be a single stage paint. How will it rub off?
