nj --> illegal to tint the front windows, and front windshield

Ghost ES3

Yea, I have the oem black emblems on my car and love them...gold is just too tacky for me i'd rather have chrome emblems than gold, unless it's a black car gold would look ok.

[QUOTE=JSM1284;3451693].......... haha. Theres soo much more I wanna say. But i'll behave.

lol...bring it on.

I am taking everyone's advice and I bought a set of black pearl emblems...well I'm waiting for the auction to end. I'm sure I'll get them. Anyone wanna buy the "Lexus" and "ES330"?

llcool - I do know that it's illegal in Jersey to tint my front windows, but I am going to make the front ones lighter so it appears like factory tint, I think it will look ok. I'm not going to tint the front windshield.

Ghost - I do like the gold emblems on my car. I picked that one because it was the only car that stood out on the lot. Every other car had the silver/chrome emblems and didn't have the options my car has. Plus one of the "3s" were peeling and I used that to bump the price down somemore. I negotiated almost 7G's off the sticker. Plus I flirted a little, it always helps.

Wish i had a nickle everytime a young lady said that to me.

Ill buy the Lexus and ES330 emblem. The kit I got was for an older ES300 so I have the "ES300" emblem, and the "Lexus" emblem is alot bigger than my stock one

LexGrl702

Sweet. I already bought it. The description says it's new from the Lexus dealer. Once I have the kit in hand I'll PM you and we can exchange info.

JSM1284

Friggin Schweet! I'll give ya all the info you need.

i assure you from being someone who notices cars very well, and lives in new jersey, that traffic cops will spot your "lightly" tinted front windows instantly. you will hopefully get away with it though..... i would advise against it since its already harder to see people around you and drive safely with tint on all the back windows. but it depends on the type of driver and conditions. but all tints do look good on the car

PS I got pulled over by a traffic cop(in his police car), on my bicycle, for not having a [bleep]ing horn! Like those that clowns have!

Lol...we have a funny group here at CL. Girl pops up and the whole thread goes haywire

hola mi Lexus amigos...here are some updated repair pics of Carmen. I am picking her up tomorrow at 10am. She has a new azz now, I'm so excited. Plus the shop was able to get the pin stripe off and gave her a nice detail.

Sad part is my black emblems aren't scheduled to be delivered until May 1, by then I'll be on the enchanted island soaking up some sun with my girl. So I won't post up the final pics until I come back from vacation.

Man, that crazy driver hit me hard! Is that part of the frame or it's a seperate panel?

JSM1284

Its not technically the frame, But rather part of the structural unibody system. They did replace that rear panel right?

LexGrl702

yes they did, the shop was able to get the insurance company to pay for a new rear body panel. I am assuming that is the part.

LexGrl702

Here she is guys, new bumper, new trunk, and debadged...what do you guys think?

LexGrl702

...oh and NO pinstripe!

sorry about the bad pics, it's not a good day for car pics.
