I got tired of having the old orange taillights on my car since I've bought it. There weren't many options at all for the LED tails, I guess the sellers from a while back no longer have them so I only found one out there. Didn't want to drop 1k+ on the custom ones yet. I actually want to try to see if I can mod my old set into something with acrylic, we will see how that goes. I'm pretty happy with how they look, they are insanely bright though at night. I didn't want to go with tinted to look too much non-stock. I'd like to change up my wheels at some point and see if I can lower without sacraficing ride quality. The car rides so nice as it is now, I may add some 20mm spacers in the meantime. These stock rims have grown on me. I had some difficulties with installing these. My main problem was that the top portion of the light didn't light up. Turns out it was a combination of a low battery and needing to have the key in the 1 position in the ignition, otherwise not enough power is supplied to power them for some reason. Drove me mad looking at fuses all checking wiring about 10x.

Nice looking LX. Blackout grill looks good with the silver.

I have the same ones on my 01 and love them. They make a huge difference.

I think the tail lights look nice. Its funny how just adding LED tail lights update the look of the car a few years (from the back anyway). Where did you end up getting them from?

I got them from topgearmotorsport, they were literally the only place I could find selling the taillights anymore. Alot of parts for the LS430 are harder to come by like the emblemless black grills. The grill actually isn't black, I bought it off mobbinvip, so its like his paint color.

do these set off the tail lamp warning light as if a bulb was out? ive been looking for led tails for the longest, but i couldnt find any that looked more oem, but these look great! i might buy a set of these

im from texas too! houston to be specific, i have a 2003 UL, lowered on BC coilovers because the bags started leaking, the stock wheels really started to grow on me too, but they do look a little sunken in, in the back, i have 25mm bolt on spacers, but im not sure if itll rub when i add them or not,

Car looks really good man! How do you like the coils in comparison? My right rear seems to always sag, I don't know if thats due to bag going bad. And I don't believe it sets off any warnings for bulbs either.

Thanks! Yours is looking really clean too! I plan on ordering the same tail lights in the very near future, did you get them from topgearautosport, or topgearmotorsport? With the sagging problem on your RR bag, it could be a sign of it going bad, maybe a leak somewhere? If you get a chance jack up the car and remove the wheel, see if you see any moisture around that air shock. Also to answer your question on the BC coilovers they ride really smooth, although there are a lot of *****ty roads in Houston, and you can definitely tell the car is lowered, through the ride quality, but if I'm on a smoother road or on the highway it rides like a dream. I haven't messed with the dampening adjustments much either, the ride quality hasn't bothered me that much, given I have owned an mr2, and s13 drift car, might adjust the dampening this week, I can update you more if you'd like.
