thanks, i am changing it abit around now. the daytime running lights i am swapping out as well as the wheels for a more OEM look, as well as adding a drop but dont know what drop would be good for a stock shock and get a good lexus ride while a low enough drop for the 18's i am putting on the car.

I'm on bags so I've removed all my mud guards. I just turn my wheel and do the work


I'd never notch them, defeats the purpose of the kit

If you have a good HID kit, you wouldnt have to change them anyways Just a one time deal

oh and no, you dont have to remove it. You an get to it from behind the mud guards in the fender wells, just unclip/unscrew and you're there
