Have you talk to some of your local muffler shop willing to do something cool for your RX ? Usually they have some good deals and decent performance.

I did at 1 point wanted element design's body kit, it cost about $900 pre-painted
I have bodyshop friends that can paint and install the entire kit at a good price
as far as wheels concern, RX has a lot of wheel space, even if you put a 22" in, there are still quite a bit of wheel space before lowering your ride.

I'd rather buy the TRD exhaust if anything. It should be a perfect fit and bolt on item. I wouldn't trust my local exhaust shops for anything!

I had TRD exhaust on my tC before it's okay as far as sound wise but it's very restrictive fitment wise it's good. As far as local muffler shops go, unless you know the owner, it's hard to get a good deal unless they had long history of good rep but some of these local shop do design custom exhaust that can fit the RX just as nice

Well this thread has certainly gone on the way side, so thought I would resurrect it a bit. Did some searching and found the following:

i really like the front nudge bar on this special edition RX350, which was sold in Australia. Does anyone know if it will fit on my RX350, and where I can purchase in the USA?

Thanks for your help!

I have seen a number of those nudge bars on the RX's here in Australia. I still think I would prefer the front lip instead though

Has anyone installed the 2010 rear view mirror with back-up camera in a pre-2010 RX?

I have a SAVV 5" LCD screen with rear view mirror and about to be install, I can pipe the navi signal to it as well as non OE backup camera. I don't have the wiring diagram to determine how to tap the factory camera video feed to the screen.

All these bodykit looks great and all, I want to know what kind of suspension are they using to get almost no wheel gap !!! Or are they just using stock Harrier suspension and rebadge the car.
