Could you tell me where to buy and what brand name for the headrest DVD? Thanks.
Nice looking car, love the wheels.

Looks like a match to me. I think the key is whether the top of the taillight on the trunk lid matches up with the top of the taillight in the fender. Yours looks like a match to me.

@Irvineguy: Those DVD headrests are copied from the new Lexus Rear Entertainment System,such as RX350 2010,RX450h,... and the name for the DVD and 2 monitors are Caska(Taiwan),the frame is DIY,total price is 500$. I'm in Vietnam so I don't know if you can find it.
@jayclapp:Thanks,because in black color I couldn't see the slits,and this color they appear clearly
@TTBomB: It's a replica of Wald,150 bucks

Can anyone give me a pic of this position in the trunk? I need to take a look at the 2 round holes inside to see if my car was missing them. Thank you.

I don't know but those rims were not from LS460,just alike. On LS460,those rims were on 19",mine were 18". The rims and tires cost 2000$

Very nice, thanks for sharing. Interesting placement of LED strip, looks factory. You might want to look into disabling the DRL's if you want those LED's to shine. Also, it seems like the tire sizing is a little off (maybe on purpose) but factory spec is 245 45 18.

No,I intended to keep the DRL,the LEDs were bright enough and my tires I took from the 18" of LS460,so they were thicker than the factory ones,I did it in order to have a softer ride instead of a hard one.
