Those tips are the antithesis of rice. Good looks but still keeps the luxury quietness of the stock Lexus exhaust system. Especially with the tiny stock exhaust tips in the relatively larger stock rear bumper, aftermarket tips are a great option for those that dont want the additional noise.

Those Borla tips are nice, but for the price, personally I'd rather dish out the extra chedda and get myself the Tanabe Touring. I called Luis the other day at Carson and they're currently out of stock!

It's only considered ricing if you use duct tape to hold it all together lol

Borla tips or Magnaflow tips are inexpensive and fill the rear bumper cutouts nicely.

definitely not a ricer. I'm thinking about doing the same thing actually.
