Very nice i think everyone agreees the Q's best feature is the headlights. Hell it is teh best projector available to man for estetics.
What i am wondering is it just as bad as they are on the donor car. Lots of reveiws said the projectors are **** poor at night ?

The Q's look good,but lack the light output.Light beam suck.

It does not suck. For the price, it is just not as optimal as compared to some other projectors out there.

I think he means that now that there is a Lexus division in Japan, the US Lexus cars are not just rebadged Toyotas (without going into the engine differences ).
