Direct bolt on. Most of us have the red ones that kind of look like this is f tails. Those make the car look ricey and cheap imo

Dont like them personally. As for them being ricey? Lexus has a history of clear/chrome tails as introduced with the "altezza" and still being used in the RX and HS or CT whatever that 4 door hatch is.

I think people who use the word "ricer or ricey" are morons just for the record. People are entitled to have their own taste. I for one know i wouldn't like to live in a world that everyone likes all the same things.
