Default modding your ES

I was just wondering how many ES owners in here wanted to mod their ES like putting lights on or exhaust or intake, also how old are you guys just want to see what range is of age of a ES owner. And your location. You don't have to post your exact age a range is fine .

Oh and information about your car..year, and any current mods?

Since this my thread let me start this first.
Age: <20
Mod: yes, interior LEDS
loc: NY

how do you add a poll?

I got this idea from here https://www.clublexus.com/forums/rx-...g-your-rx.html.

u should do a full video of ur car and post it on youtube gekae24, sounds like a dope ride.

Age 20
2007 Lexus ES350
Color: Moonshell
Country: Canada, Toronto

1. Windows Tinted (front and rear)

2. Rear light tinted (just the white parts)

3. Interior/Exterior Lights
- 6k head and fog lights
- LEDs: front and rear blinker, 5k front side marker, 5k mirror lamp (stays on all the time even when you turn the car off), 5k reverse light, 7440 parking light and 7443 brake light, door courtesy light (4 of them), footwell light (got it from lexus dealer), and trunk light, all LEDs from vleds.com

4. Trunk lip spoiler (bought it off ebay)

5. Lexus license plate frames

Next Mods in the coming months
- Add on my K&N intake when Summer comes
- Buy new summer tires
- Buy new shift ****
- Install 4 strips of white LEDs under the front and rear footwell, hook them to the oem footwell light so it gets bright when u put the gear to [P] and dims when you put the gear to [D].

Those are a pain I heard they are soldered in or something. The interior LEDS are disappointing they are not bright at all maybe 1SMD per bulb?
