Looks very nice! I like it alot!

But i do have a problem with the yellow film on the foglights. Somehow i just think it stands out too much. Is it possible to retrofit yellow caps into the foglight housing so it looks clear with very little yellow during daytime? Just a thought!

Also, do you have a picture of where the backup camera is mounted?

They look like halogen headlamps with a PNP. Better get some OEM HID headlamps or do a retrofit. The stock halogens give off too much glare on the sides. There is no cover for them and provide a nice reflection of HID light right into your face. Also there is no cutoff line and you will blind oncoming traffic.

You should get some plugs for the license plate holes.

i went with aftermarket hid's guys. the lexus dealership wanted too much ($1100 per headlight) so i just went with a simple kit that a buddy of mine sells out of house. it cost me a total of $220. he had brighter ones but i'm ok with thses for now.
and as far as the yellow fogs, i like the yellow housing but the light is kind of dull, i might go hid's on those as well eventually.
