Looks good. Great idea for those black covers. I've always hated that the bracket shows in the background.

I don't have the mould anymore so It's a bit difficult to reproduce them.

I'll change the O2 sensor when I have the time and money for it. It doesn't bother me that much at the moment.

Last week my tranny started to make this knocking (don't know how to describe it) sound when the engine was running. It got louder when I revved the engine. Some Lexusguy told that it could be from the turbine or something like that inside the tranny.
Anyways it was apparently caused by lack of oil. I added 2dl of oil into the tranny and now it sounds like it should - no extra sound.

Today I ordered front brake discs and pads and rear pads. Later I'll order rear discs so I can change them all at the same time. Shouldn't be hard task.

Thanks for your comments and likings guys!
