Question All the lights are on?

Any one notice that all the lights are on?

Usually when you put the HIGH beams on the fog lights turn off.

Not so, in the pictures above.

It's illegal in all 50 states to have more than 2 sets of lights on, i.e. Low Beam, High Beam and Fogs, all together.

As for the photo, the camera's aperture is exaggerating low level light. What you see on the New IS' headlights is a combination reflection of the low beam and the city light/parking light (wedge bulb) that illuminates between the low and high beam lenses.

Did anyone notice that the dealership put on their own badge above the "LEXUS" badge in the rear? How much did they take off sticker for that?

Otherwise, you should take that off.... it looks pretty bad.

Haha it was free. All cars from that dealership has that badge on there. I assume it isnt drilled on becasue it would take them more effort to drill holes rather than just slapping it on there with a double sided tape. I dont really mind it but if it bothers many other people, i might take it off. <- applies to the pin stripe as well

Yea but why advertise for them unless they pay you.

Same reason why I take of the dealer license plate holder as soon as I get home.

If it was me I would have asked them to take them off before I took delivery. But thats just me
