How-To Tuesday: Make Your Lexus Glow With Illuminated Scuff Plates
Until your ride is glowing, it’s not really hot, is it?
Well, if it’s not, now is the time to rectify that lackluster situation. And we’ve got just the thing for that: today’s How-To Tuesday article! Writer Cynthia Griffith helps you get this DIY party started right by teaching you how to spice up your Lexus IS scuff plates.
I hear what you’re saying: “Wait, aren’t those the things you scrape your muddy feet on so your mats don’t get filthy?” Come on, guys! This is 2015. Those plates are no longer for scraping, heck, they’re not even for scuffing. Oh no, these days, nothing says rolling rave party like some illuminated scuff plates.
Besides being totally cool looking, there is at least one practical excuse for this do-it-yourself gem, it’s called nighttime. Besides being the right time, it’s also the dark time, and darkness causes tripping. But that will never be a problem when your scuff plates are lit up like the White House Christmas tree. Right when the valet opens the door, you’ll be able to see that scuff plate from thirty feet, guiding you in like a landing strip, till you’ve touched down safely on your fine semi-aniline leather.
Now, fair warning, this DIY project isn’t as easy as last week’s self-made sun shade lesson; there’s some actual wiring involved. But it should only take you 20-30 minutes. So just head on over to the article, and follow the steps. They’re all laid out for you. You got this.
