Looks good! I would've blacked out the center caps too though.

clean ride! the smoked taillights with the black emblems and black rims- they all go great together. the shark fin antenna delete and no trunk spoiler is a nice touch as well!

^^^What he said. I understand you wanted it to match the chrome trimming around the windows, but I feel it makes it look like it matches less because it's in such contrast with your dark wheels. If anything just leave the Lexus "L" chrome but have the rest of the center cap matched.

Anywhooo, overall I like it! And I don't think it needs a trunk spoiler. Looks good without it too.

I would get rid of that chrome around window as well and for the center caps you can blackout taking them out and then in top of the black once is dry spray on some clear only on the L! Nice ride.
