did a very good job IMO. i am a PITA at Lexus of RVC,,, they tolerate my BS. so they always work with me for whatever i want to do. and i've bought 4 cars from them so that might have something to do with it.
Damn, you are so good at this!! Haha. I am also a PITA at my dealer after making them switch the tires 3x and getting the proper balancing and replacing the aluminum trim inside for the mini dents. I am also showing off my fog lights to them and telling them its not hard to get it done and I will show you more pics next week of the new front lip spoilers i got from think design.

Kind of makes it look BMW-like now, and that's not a bad thing. Makes me seriously consider machine finished wheels for my Liquid Platinum.

i can see some BMW in it also,,, from the front fender forward. it definitely gives the car a different look,,, you have to stand next to it and see it for yourself. these wheels would look sweet on your LP. reveal car with Templin/Toyoda,,, hint , hint.

now i think i'm going to do my calipers the same hyper silver or gloss blk. with the fsport decals, and i won't have to pay for those either because BTK offered to do my calipers for free because his worker scratched up my car while polishing when he was only supposed to do the bumper after it was hit.

The bright finish looks good, it matches the chrome/silver accents on the car nicely!

I like the contrast it makes with the Obsidian. Would black calipers make a similar contrast with the hyper silver wheels? Just don't park so close to the curb.
