If you had the opportunity to have somebody shop for you for accessories for our RX330’s (Harrier’s) in Japan, what accessories would be on top of your list to get the JDM look?

 

i personally think the whole JDM look is cheesy. just like the people making their civics and such looking like jdm. it was cool like 5 years ago when nobody else was doing it, now its whatever.

 

I guess you are right. You knw that the Japanese are converting theirs to "ADM"...meaning they want the US VERSION.....it's about time!!!! We still rule!!!!!

 

The Harrier emblem for the front like I have on my RX300,

 

its not that we are cooler then the japanese, they are just doing what people here do, they want something different, so they put the oe equipment we get here on their home market cars.

 

Harrier is supposed to be an eagle or something?

 

I believe it's a type of Hawk.

 

Hawk....ooohhh....the Predator....I really do not fancy it. I still like the L.

 

In some ways I do like the L, but I always wanted that Harrier emblem for some reason.

 

Are the Harrier parts made for our cars and are they considered to be the standard as far as excellence in production. I'm trying to do some modding on my RX 330 and I just don't want a bunch of cheap stuff hanging on it. I found a toyota dealer in Ca. that sells alot of Harrier stuff but is there anywhere else that I could compare prices. Sure seems high but then again the dollar aint worth much these days. Any of you guys (gals) put pillar chrome on your cars if so how did it look and what about chrome around the head light and tail lights?

 

You can find a bunch of stuff on ebay, just type in "lexus harrier"

The dealer in CA, is it Carson Toyota/Lexus? If it is they're a sponsor and usually give member discounts.

The oem harrier items are quality parts, not cheap. They're oem in JP so fitment is perfect.

 

Thanks I'll drop the club lexus name....you've taken a load off of my mind....

 

I like mods to be functional. Some of the JDM stuff is certainly that, those seat back desks are great. An excellent place to put the Grey Poupon on picnics whilst catching a chukka or two.

 

Does anyone know if Nigel is still in business. I've emailed him and sent him a msg from his website and still no contact. Anybody got a phone number?

 

I don;t really want to debate this issue much. I will say that we get very little options in the USA. The JDM options or some of them are not only functional but OEM quality. I love this stuff and am very interested in Japanese culture and style. Lots of designs differ from east to west in general. But I have limits. I do not like the Harrier logo or emblem. I don't wanna be associated with a hawk or some jet fighter that hovers on the ground into an airplane

Lots of products in Japan are made so superior to US Auto that it's silly. Why I usually look at getting Wheels made in Japan as well. This isn't a Honda racer JDM thing it's a luxury level Toyota thing. Anyways I will keep it to that and not comment anymore really. Just my opinion.
