Default You'll Definitely Know This Is TOM'S NX



This modded out NX features a slick front spoiler, rear under spoiler, side steps, exhaust system barrel, and TM-05 wheels. Oh, and a whole lot of TOM'S badges.

Read the rest on the Club Lexus homepage. >>

I love lots of things about this: the front spoiler, side steps. But it has kind of become that guy (or gal) upon whom every accessory and article of clothing is visibly labeled.

And I thought my build would be special with 19” F-sport rims and running boards.

The styling of the NX, including the lower portions, is aggressively tasteful that it's tough to beat with an aftermarket kit. Admittedly though, TOM'S front lip is tastefully done.

Default I don't quite get the point

Yeah accessories make the look, but the not replacing the 2x dual tip exhaust tips (which are pointless in themselves) are a real turn off...

All those Tom badges are a turn off, especially on the steering wheel and start button.

I would really like to see a side view of this standing still....I think those are the wheels I want...is there a Tom's site? I can't seem to find one...just some sites that sell Tom's Racing stuff, but no wheels.

The wheels can be found here (I googled "Toms TM-05 wheel"): http://global.rakuten.com/en/search/...product_search

The Toms website is here: http://www.tomsracing.co.jp/

Thanks! You are a much better googler than I am!

I am already familiar with that Rakuten site...I ordered my cat's food bowls from there. They came from Japan in 4 days. I order something from Ohio, and it takes a week...go figure!

Those wheels are cheap though...only $167 each. I wonder if they look cheap for real? Those are similar to the Lexus Spyder wheels I had on my '06 GS back in the day.

I think you might want the 19" ones, which are here: http://global.rakuten.com/en/store/w...em/42610-tm506 - $295 each.

Also, the link in my previous email I have updated to show all of the TM-05 sizes. Interestingly, there isn't a 20" one.

Yes...I see that now...hmmm, not sure I want to spend the money on the leased vehicle...especially getting new tires too. I think that when I get my replacement 2018 NX, I will buy that one and keep it longer. Maybe Lexus will have some other wheel choices then too.

I agree. I'm thinking exactly the same thing (but mine will be the 2019).

Tom's take on Tom's NX ......
Side skirts, rear diffuser , front spoiler....all nice .....four exhaust looks like overkill and the wheels I prefer a graphite set to them or gunmetal....or even black.

I am also not quite sure on the wheel well's either....pics would be easier to study. I'm sure the badges are for the video and advertising. At least Tom hopes so.....
