Not a big fan here. Just doesn't say "Lexus" to me.

Looks like the consensus is split right down the middle as to whether you like or dislike this mod. But to answer a few questions:

1. These rings were on my car. I took them out because I switched to the newer style lights and they don't fit anymore. You are right, they look great and flush on a silver car (like mine). But some people also love the contrast of chrome on black cars. I think they would look especially great if you have the matching chrome trunk lid.

2. The fit is perfect. Those rings are part of the JDM option that Toyota offers to the buyers. As you can probably guess, the fit is pretty much factory.

3. In fact, they do offer a ring style without the 2 lines in the middle so that they "won't break the nice curvey lines" of the car. But those rings would be available only to the newer style lights.

4. You would be very surprised at how affordable these rings are. They are not "in the hundreds" as one of you had said.

5. This mod is definitely geared towards those people that like bright shiny things, but to those of you who follow the clean and understated look, I don't think this is for you.

Thanks for the comments.
