One Bad A** HID retrofit
Here's one example of what a Q45 HID retrofit can look like.

My message to the Mods and Dave,
**Please don't close this thread. I'm not promoting my retrofit work or things that have caused my recent HID threads to get shut down. I'm simply showing what a good example of what an HID retrofit on a Toyota product can look like so fellow Lexus owners can see what other people on the net are doing to their cars. In fact I didn't work on the one linked above.***

Enough color for my taste. Of course the Q45 cutoff has nowhere near the sharpness of any single lens projector, but as I've stated many times before I chose this one based on bling factor / appearance more than anything else. And in the appearance department, boy does it deliver. =P~

Thanks! I completed another one myself this weekend of the same projector for a GS but won't post it here. These Q45s are getting more and more popular and with output looking like that I doubt they'll be sitting around Ebay or junk yards much longer!
Your gonna make me send my lights back to you! 
Lol! 
My wife is going to kill me!

Those aren't mine lol! That's someone on hidplanet's Q45 retrofit. In a GS it'll look the same output wise though. If anyone searches they can look up a few I've done on here with pics etc to see what it looks like in a Lex. In fact there are a few guys here who have also done them on their own cars or had other guys out there make a set for them. In fact, there's a new GS-Infiniti Q45 retrofit on hidplanet right now too.
