im not mad, I jus think haters are stupid and have limited skill if any, point is don’t troll people then fet mad at how they react I’m funny and have time to do this all day,
“Implied that you did such a clean job it looks photoshopped” yeah right but thanks I guess

much appreciated bro, I do collision repair professionally so I’ve had years of practice and projects that didn’t go over as well but you can’t get it right if your not willing to get it wrong a few times along the way

Good morning Jon and I am back. i have read all the comments regarding your conversion and I am still on the fence line but ( here I may rattle some cages ) there is one improvement you made that I truly like and that is the elimination of the high beam headlights. I believe that was the one flaw in the design of our cars. Lexus could have installed headlights that incorporated a high beam and the car would look so much better. If our cars were not so beautiful I believe everybody would be complaining about them. Toyota tried them in the Celica and they were ugly then they tried them on Lexus sedans on the trunk. I just think they were trying real hard to be unique in their design and with the headlights they succeeded. I have been looking around at other cars for the last couple of years for another car headlight that could be tastily installed in my car when I have it painted. This headlight if found would have the high beam integral and the remaining hole could be filled giving a much cleaner look as your car now looks without the high beams. Jon keep hanging in there and don't give up the ship. Again Good Luck.

thanks man, honestly the only thing I hated about this conversion is I had to delete the high beams, I actually like them and try to take as little away from the factory design as possible that’s why I kept the Factory fogs, it was much harder than other conversions I’ve seen, everyone just cuts around the headlights and pretty much just uses the bottom of the New bumper, it doesnt take very much work.. like you said it gives the car a very unique look and I really didn’t want to take away from that I just figured these cars are pretty unique anyway and it’s hard to take away from that so I sacrificed my highs, I do have an extra set and and plan on trying a high beam retrofit, highs and lows in the same fixture I’ll need some luck for that so thanks lol..
