Guys,

Do you guys do LED replacements for the instrumental lights in US? I live in south Korea and check these out what they do here. I have already spent a couple of grand and feek like have gotten only half way. So much trendy culture here.

Yes it is too, but I really don't like painted calipers. Looks way too cheap for a Lexus, either you powder coat, BBK or nothing.

sorry bro
props for you spending that much money on your car in South Korea
but people in US do it themselves..meaning, they don't waste money on installation bro

painting calipers are very common, but normally guys with 250 don't paint them
because the caliper is ugly..it only looks good on 350's caliper

maybe he used to live in Korea?
or maybe he used to live in CA? lol

anyways,
I'm little irritated that he posts some pics of his car and
make it sound like all South Koreans are doing it

I've seen many other ISs when I was in Korea, and they know wassup man

and no matter how "cosmetic" those fake brembos look
fake will always be fake
