Default New Grill :D

Lookie what I got in the mail today
Can't wait to put it on!

I think I'll do some experiment with my old grill, maybe wipe off the black paint
and reveal the chrome underneath, like the GS's grill mod.

Hi Flip, I saw your ride on another post.
Which is the main reason why I ordered this Grill.

Hopefully I can at least make my sportcross look half as good as your MSM

My only other mod besides the grill and AltezzaGita badge.

one blue LED above each footwell and a row of 3 small LEDs under the radio.
Wired using the parking lights power. I know Blue LED are played out, but its my fav colour.
I added an on/off switch in the glove box, so I can turn if off when I get tired of the blue light.

I can't keep my hands from shaking for so long, sorry about the blurry pic.

It looks better in person, I promise

Wow, I'm starting to really like the BSM color. And on a SportCross is even more unique. Nice grill of course.

Thanks, actually I wanted a red sportcross.
But they have a BSM in stock, and that was my second choice.

LOL, yeah, I love the LS as well.

The LS and IS is at the extreme opposite end of the Lexus spectrum, sooner or later I'll have a split personality

too bad all the mods for an LS are big ticket items, like wheels and body package.

btw, congrats on your new SC, start planning yours mods

hey thanks man. trust me when i say i got plans for the sc430. my wife has already picked a lot of mods for the car -- not even funny

yup, items for the ls430 are all big price tag, but then the car is so expensive and exclusive to begin with anyway

actaully if you want to mod the is3 nice, it can still cost you quite a bit
