Lets keep this open. There are relatively few LX owners but let them introduce themselves here. We got to stick together.
Year of LX
Mods
Planned Mods

Something of that nature.

Default 04' LX470 blizzard pearl

I guess I'll start.

Got an 04' LX470, blizzard pearl along with my blue 02 SC430

No mods planned for the LX, unless someone can interest me in where I can find more power...

SC has variety of mods that really compliment the car.

Must say, this is my second LX, the other was green, they are excellent and great SUV's! Ultimate in luxury and comfort.

Love the LX, gives whatever it can for an SUV, but I would like alot more power. It is really underpowered imho.....maybe 22" wheels in the future, gotta be HRE's though..... Its the commuting vehicle and gets driven mostly in the winter when weather does not permit the SC to come out! Oh and also trying to get phillips HID on the car to better light the road at nights, if I can do some research and figure out what pieces i need....I think it would look really nice with the 04 green tint in the headlights.

thats about it, don't really come on the LX board too often, but I think I will try to visit it more often!

Got a 99 LX - River Rock Green Metallic (grey), only mod is slightly oversized tires. Keep drooling over a HD bumper powder coated to match. Not really my toy car though so pretty much stock for the near future.
Daily driver and a fantastic football tailgating vehicle too!!!

We're a 2 LX 450 household - both 1997. The wife's is Champagne in color and stock (with the exception of LED dome lights and courtesy lights and a OEM Toyota in-dash cupholder (fits in the slot above the radio).

My white 450 has been modified for off-road use. Some of the mods done (I know I'll miss something):
Old Man Emu springs and shocks -- heavy rating;
Goodyear MTRs - 315/75 R16 on 16x8 black rock crawler rims;
ARB Winch Bull Bar;
Slee offroad sliders replacing the running boards;
Slee offroad rear bumper with tire carrier;
Slee offroad transfer case skid plate;
LED dome lights and courtesy lights;
OEM Toyota in-dash cup holder;
Fender flares and body cladding removed -- black bed liner sprayed in place of flares/panels;
CB radio;
2 12v power outlets in cargo area (1 used to power my ARB fridge/freezer);
Differential breather hose lengthened and routed into engine compartment;
Upgraded head light harness.

Upcoming:
snorkel; 2nd battery with isolator; winch; full length roof rack; cargo area drawer system; drivers seat extender (to allow seat to slide back a couple extra inches); permanent mount for my hand-held GPS; aux. lights...

These rigs are fantastic off-road!!!

Hi all,

98 LX470 (Blk)... haven't really done any mods. It's been rather difficult finding anything for the LX don't you guess think? Nothing up to Lexus quality standard that is...

Plans: My tires are almost ready for a replacement, so I figure I'll upgrade the wheels as well. Problem again is, I haven't seen any nice wheels that fit the LX470. I was thinking of going 20's... any suggestions or pics? Thx!

Got my 00 peal white LX

No mods, although I'd sure like some more power because this thing is a punk in the hills.
