Default Lexon Exclusive

So I got some new goodies...thought I share.

First, I want to Thank Carson Toyota & Lexon, for giving me the opportunity to demo the Lexon aero kit.

2nd, big props to Joe at Backyard Creations for painting the kit, and doing it in such a short time. Coolest guy ever! Went beyond my expectations.

Here are some quick pics I just took. Better photos later when I wash the car, and we do photoshoot.

Backyard creations? Is it the same company Carson sources for their painting? Hows the paint? Does it match well? 3 stage paint is tough to match.

Well anyway, I'm still waiting for my GFM roof spoiler. Apparently they got Tungsten Pearl and GFM mixed up. Sent me a TP spoiler instead. Ended up returning it for the correct color.

Pocky, looks GREAT. The front lip gives the car a GREAT stance, and the rear trunk spoiler looks great with the ings trunk spoiler. Now you just need RIMS!

Nice, the Lexon front lip looks like a better alternative to the factory add-on lip. Joe did a great job matching the paint as well...glad you're happy with the results.

Bleh. I think the Lexon front lip is whatever.

It makes the curvy IS blocky in the front, and I can't get used to that vulgar slit.

Even if the lip was given to me for free, I'd sell it and get the Fabulous lip.

Just my opinion.
