Default Mods & Accessories 2016 GX


I did a few mods & accessories.
Tail pipe, Rubber mats, Interior & Step up lighting, Tint
I don't know if to go more darker on the front windows. In the back doors and tailgate I added extra 35% layer, back rear 3/4 windows I did 20% extra and the front doors I did 35%. I might do the windshield with anti glare tint. Taking stuff apart today and I found an SD

Your lighting upgrade seems to have quit a bit of blue? I have a black GX with tinted windows and the flat/satin window pillars botherd me. I have a 2011 so they are more weathered. I put a piano black on my GX. It blends in better with tinted windows. I ordered this and started paying attention to what was on other cars and it looks like both are common. Lexus has a gloss and a flat along with others.





























Just something to consider Sweet ride

I just installed the nav/DVD motion module in my car from BeatSonic and love it. Now I can access everything whenever I want and it doesn't matter if my car is in motion.

I mentioned this mod to my wife but she tells me that the command features work perfectly fine. On the 04 gx the command sucks!

The link shows blue and looks dim. 16 LEDs for $21 . You get what you pay for. My LEDs have been replaced with a newer model with the link below.

New model here.

I haven't got a chance to see them at night. Will get a shot at night tomorrow. They look way better than the OEM though.

OP, I would tweak your last 1 or 2 hangers upward and bring the pipe up 1/2" or so. It looks like it hanging a bit low.
