Default Hotness: Key Mod

OK lades, this one is guaranteed to get up to 10hp to the wheels, make your hair grow faster, and your ish will definitely no longer stink...

Take the key case off, turn it inside out, cut the nylon backing off and remove the silly paper instructions on how to turn your car on, or the paper Lexus logo (which ever side you have showing). Why on earth Lexus would want you to look at that, I'm not sure. Expose the shiny metal Lexus logo like it was mean to be...

Here is a high resolution picture...watch out all you 56k-er's...

That's a great idea! Also if you turn the instructions around then you'll see "L" "Lexus".

that's an old idea just as non-interesting as the day it was posted last year.

search some of the other threads for a couple of cool looking key case, now if you can find those.....

Cool

I guess great minds think alike. I did that the day I drove home with the new car back in Feb and its been posted on here several times. Guess it will help newbies though.

Dude...10 extra HP isnt interesting? C'mon this has got to be the most innovative thing anyone has ever done since Paris Hilton started toting her poochie in a rhinestone hand bag.

yes...be careful, this mod will cause your car to flip on its back and explode, on wednesdays and every other saturday. Which I assume would void your warranty
