How about adding some fender flares?
Like this one,

It's not perfect, but is the only one style I can find.

I'm not a fan of fender flares......I think it cheapens the look of the vehicle. So many are coming with them now, but that's one thing I loved about the current RX not having them. Just my opinion. I know many do like them, and perhaps protect the paint around the wheel wells more.

Yes, I agree with Ronn1. IMHO the flares make the luxury RX look like my 1997 Rav4 that had that sort of thing (my Mom still drives that car.). ...but to each their own when it comes to customization and personal esthetics!

Painted would probably look better. But those are oversized and remind me too much of the old Explorer Sport I used to have. The RX is supposed to be an LUV, or luxury utility vehicle.

I have a silver f sport and blacked out the front bumper (between the spindle), lower Chrome rails, and rear trunk chrome handle in 3m satin black vinyl. Looks more aggressive now and blends in well with the Oem plastic skirts and front spindle. Don't have pics up but will try to get up over the next week.

Making a RX350 aggressive? you gotta be kidding me! Go buy an M, AMG or RS if you want aggressiveness!

Just because I'm on a Lexus forum, I can't talk about other brands? The RX is by no means any aggressive, even the F sport. It's simply a luxury SUV that tries to be sporty. By the way, I just bought a F sport so should I change my name to Rx350 then?

OK, I've removed a few remarks. No need to get personal. If someone recommends another brand, they're free to do that.
