Hi guys,
Thought I'd share some pics of my cherry lady. I'm waiting for my custom plate to arrive as well.
Don't know if I should tint the glasses, and also to blacken out the silver bezel.

Feel free to share any suggestions.
Thanks.

I think unless you plan on blacking out the headlight housing you should have kept the chrome outline for the grille. I originally painted the grille solid black like yours and realized that it just looks out of place with a chrome headlight on each side of it. Maybe consider smoking the taillights or just having someone put tinted film over the white strip on the tail lights as well? Car looks very clean though I just feel to have only the grille and wheels black that it needs some more black on the car.

Yes. Totally understand what you're saying. That's why I thought of tinting the windows. But you're right, if the grill outline is black, then the bezel should be black as well. Very good perspective. Appreciate it.

I'm not a fan of the wheels. I think they take away from the car. Even over stock.

agree on the wheels, are they plastidipped?

I also don't understand why people black out the beautiful chrome logos

but great car,

I MIGHT have a Wald Executive Kit for the 04-06 LS for sale that'd match your color here pretty soon. Key word might, gotta see if my wife will let me get this other thing I want, lol. Probably sell it after deployment if everything falls in my favor. PM me if interested.

Nice car, was one of my color choices too.

Looks like a Lexus police cruiser. If going with the blacked out theme, the rest of the brightwork needs to go and the windows need a deep black tint to complete the look.

It looks good! That's the first time I've seen the OEM 5-spoke wheels blacked out like that.

I actually like it without the tint.

my brother in law will be pleased that his never cleaned wheels are in style now.

Great looking car. I suggest getting some premium quality tint on the windows. Tint looks really good on black cherry color LS. Sorry dude but I'm just not feeling those black wheels on the LS. Silver wheels look way better to me but that is just my taste and everybody is different. You do what makes you happy and that is all that matters in the end.

I think you need some thin chrome accent lines on the tires and the grill. Looks too "highway patrol" now.
Agree with Jabberwok on the window tint. You need some 15% on those windows.
Maybe just a thin chrome outline of the "L" on the grill and around the edges. The wheels? maybe a ring around the edge and then dual strips on each of the spokes. Just ideas. Nice ride.

Appreciate all the comments guys.
My intention is to make it look like an under cover highway patrol car like some of you said.
I like this theme because it is a really ferocious look and that's what I'm looking for.

I'm thinking about all the suggestions.
But the tint is a must I think.

Only thing is the bezel, I'm not really sure if I should black it out as well, or go with the idea that one of the guys here mentioned, and that is to have a thin silver line on all the blacked out parts.

Hmm, great suggestions guys! Now I'm all lost on what to do.

The black wheels and black grill make your LS different in a good way. I like it

I think the headlights are fine, and tint the windows if you want ..... but if you blacked out the chrome trim around the windows, I think the car would have a more unified and finished look.
