That's impressive did you change both rear hatches and front hood?

Looks better than the 2007. Except the unattractive all-white side lights.

Can you add the sources where you got these parts?
Where did you buy the rear lights? Also How did you manage to fit the number plate lights, as I know the number plates lights on 1999 lx470 are hidden and above the number plates. Are these wired and working?

LOVE it. I love the lights makes the LX look cleaner/crisp. The front bumper I'm a LEXUS but STILL a SUV. The rear hatch is great love the chrome... GREAT JOB Sir.

Wow looks great. It's the same year and color as mine. I would be very interested in where you got all the parts and how hard it was to switch them

u can get tail light n reverse light from ebay or http://www.alibaba.com
and you do have to change the tail gate (65061‑60241) or if you dont wanna buy one you can go to any paint shop n ask them to fix the tail light to your old tail gate (not a big deal) cuz the 2007lx470 tail light are 3cm longer then the old lx tail light

I am not worried about the tail light as I found many on ebay which are made to fit on 1998-2002 lx470. I am concern about the number plate lights (the one which are not on 2002 lx470, but these are on newer models on both sides of number plate), and also how did you manage to adjust the chrome lining around the number plate.
