What years/packages received the side marker lights in the middle of the fender? I've not seen another SC with them. the ones on my car are clearly a factory job (mounting holes stamped into fender), and the VINs on the fenders match the car.

 

um...no years iirc have fender markers!

 

This is really effing with me, because I can find no documentation of fender side markers, and yet there they are. I mean, this is the most stock Lexus SC300 like ever. I can't imagine that the one mod this car received over the last 20 years was professionally stamped and painted mounting for side markers.

Gonna get some pics in a few hours, just in case nobody else comes up with anything.

 

The SC/Soarer NEVER had side markers in the middle of the fenders, The only side markers the SC should have are on the side of the front bumpers...Whoever had your car prior, Was probably an idiot ricer who thought it was cool to do it.

 

lol at idiot ricer

 

Hey punk I added turn signals blinkers on my fenders! Looks great I must say! How's adding turn signals ricer? then again I heard it all, even ppl saying adding mods to an "automatic car" is ricer I even read on some forum some members bashing eachother that having a sunroof is ricer cmon really ? that word gets tossed around so much the past 10 years

 

Pics will determine ricerness. But to be honest its not a terrible idea when executed correctly like on z4 and z3. But aftermarket additions hardly ever look good.

Just get Soarer side markers leave it at that

 

post up some pics of these sidemarkers!

 

Eh its best that there were never side markers there, personally I don't like side markers very much. It would be much cleaner if there weren't any on the car.

 

It is possible that this car was imported from a country that did not require a reflector in the rear of the vehicle and that these were added in order to meet the requirements in place by the US. If you look at JDM taillights, they do not have the reflective portion in the outboard corners, so instead of replacing taillights, some shops just add these "sidemarkers" to allow the vehicle to legally drive on US roads. Just a thought.

 

I know here in quebec people haven't passed the inspection with an imported car without rear side marker, but that wasn't on an Soarer.

Is your car imported?

 

Pics or it didnt happen

Only possibility is a custom job, no side markers on fenders. Even JDM soarers have the bubble markers on the side of the bumper. Nothing on fenders.

 

Hmm interesting post some pics, lets see what your talking about here also it be nice for future reference in case some one want to ad them on and come across this thread.
