Wowsers! That thing must rock your ears out! The air horns too! You may want to consider tinting the window so no one can see what you have back there.

Other than that, looks good! Wheels aren't my style personally, though.

I like it. Dislike the chrome rims though.

nice speakers but if I were you I would keep the tint to keep the clean look. But flashy chrome wheel without lowering the car more like DUB style. Just my own opinion.

Rims aren't my style, but I'm sure there are many people who see your car and love it. Those same people would not like my style, so it's really just personal preference. It must sound crazy with that system.

the audio mods look intense..wheels not a fan of. I say a lighter tint would have been nice to slightly hide that system. Lotta haters in nyc, u don't wanna get robbed. I'm also wondering how u dont bend wheels. I was thinkn of takin the lex down to Manhattan/Brooklyn area for a date. I'm scared though cuz I'm on coils and slammed by NY standards.

the wheels look heavy, and big, with minimal tire sidewall so i would assume its a rougher ride.
the speakers in the rear look like an open invitation for a thief to bust your window and take em.
perhaps you could acquire an oem looking cover to conceal them.

no hate, just stating what it LOOKS like from my eyes.

Not my style, but I respect the craftsmanship. Having lived in NYC, I definitely get the horn upgrade. Nice.

Are you running without a center brake light? I removed mine and mounted it in the headliner.

You've taken it away from VIP styling and put it in urban tuning. Looks cool for what it is though

I agree with all u guys... I like the older rims better and I think the tint made it look better too!!! I was just tryna go for a different look this summer but it didn't come out as good lookin as I thought It would!!! For the most part, I like the new look, just not as much as the way it looked last year!! Thanx guys, I really appreciate the comments
