TBH i dont like the LED ones

[aztecbandit1]

Good Idea i never thought of that i could buy the chrome ones you get and paint them Granite Sky

I did think of those at first which gave me the idea mate or maybe tint the lenses a bit?... :)

[Tuff]

They look good fella but i know what you mean about outer edge, once you sort that it will look good :winky:

[Rogue]

Rod

You should look for some trims to cover the edges. Lextasy do something but I think its costly but balance it against the cost of replacements. Looks good though...its all about making yours different as we have said before.

[boddamloon]

Yes ill need to look into that and thanks for the feedback guys.

No nor do I really, just thinking 'outside the box' lol! Having spent a few mins looking at them, the black ones are actually starting to grow on me. I wouldn't put them on my car, well, because mine's blue and it would just look plain silly lol! but I actually now think on a black car they look alright. What about chroming around the edges?

What would look good with them is to have the smoked fog lenses.

[boddamloon]

Yes i think i will need to try something like that.You can also do it in charcoal or any colour you wish really.I once saw a white Lexus and its lights were done in white and it looked really nice.

Only downside to doing this mod in my opinion if you have any scratches on the acrylic it will be noticable once you paint the inners darker

Rod if you have scratches on your lenses mate try a bit of brasso on a soft cloth to polish them out with a bit of pressure and care not to rub too hard as thats what i used to use when i was a quality inspector for toyota and bmw when i used to build there headlamps it all depends on how deep the scratches are i use it to polish my headlamps as they were going a bit yellow and it takes any crap out of the lense?.. ;)

Just found these mate on fleabay...link

[boddamloon]

Yeh i seen them cheers Chris. I will try the Brasso too. I used to used it on my number plate and i guess its made from the same stuff. Cheers

I forgot to ask you Rod did you get your roof spoiler sorted mate?

[boddamloon]

Yes its all painted im just waiting for the guy to come back from holidays and ill get the bumper and spoiler fitted at the same time.Ill have it all on before the show

[aztecbandit1]

Sound mate looking forward to seeing your hard work in the flesh.. ;)

[boddamloon]

Well guy's i got the new bumper and roof spoiler fitted on on Friday. Also i fitted custom made induction and a stainless pipe coming from the back of bumper up to feed the induction with some cooler air.Comments welcome.

[Moffet]

Looks great mate. You'll need to remember your car is longer for tight parking spaces though!

Quick question - why do you still have the TTE airbox in there if you have an induction kit fitted?

[sparkystav]

I was thinking the same, but it does cover the engine up nicely i suppose.

The kit looks good mate.

[boddamloon]

Hi Adam my aim was to have the induction but to keep the airbox as i think it looks tidier and is easier to keep clean. Also with the oem filter removed i get some cool air going through the box and blowing onto the charger which wont do it any harm .

[Moffet]

Ah. Cunning. ;)

[Fin_IS_200]

Where did u get that roof spoiler ?

Car looks great. :)

[Gord]

Looking nice Rod :winky: was the fitment of the roof spoiler ok ?

[Rory]

Looks like a completely different car to when I last saw it, and it looks bloody good too

[boddamloon]

Fin & Gord Thatwas a BMW roof spoiler i picked up from Altezzalightning and it was 1/4 inch too long but it let me sand it down to the shape of the lexus .Its nice and easy to sand down.I stuck it to the window beading with UV Glue and it has taken a nice hold.

Lol @ Rory yes you can say that again mate.

[Unregistered_User]

Looks cracking that mate - great work!

Look forward to seeing this at a meet / event...

All the best,

Jamie

[Vyker]

nice Bod, looks good.

i really like the rear side view of your car, the alloys, spoilers all looks cracking...

one thing, where did you get the mudflaps from? its a nice touch.

[Rob]

mud flaps are from dealers

Rod - the pipe for the "cool" air that is directed to the intake - do you plan to have a scoop on the end or just leave it as in the photo

[boddamloon]

Thanks for the comments guy's
