Default My Clean Ride

Just got my car detailed today and had my black pearl emblems put on. What do you think? I'm still waiting on my struts before I lower the ride.

Very clean looking Nixsun! Black pearls on Warm Gray Pearl look so good, excellent combo. This is just me, but I think the "LEXUS" emblem looks a tad bit too close to the end of the trunk lid I dig the Lexus front plate and the SC rims

Clear corners as the next mod?
