Or are they rock chips? My RX's rear bumper is usually blemish free. Of course, I keep blankets in the back to protect it when I haul stuff in and out.
David, those are the unfortunate street parking in NYC. People don't care about tapping others' cars just to fit in a parking space. I got the clear plastic thingy the dealership put, so it looks worst because of the plastic.

this is so true, im from brooklyn, my car was scratch free until last night, somebody scratched rear bumper pretty good, gonna work on it on the weekend and now im definitely going to consider bumper guards, even though they downgrade the look of the car, but id rather have that than scratches.

The base RX and even the premium model only come with 18" rims. I didn't want to pay for the hybrid or another more expensive package in order to get the Lexus 19" super chrome rims and the dealer wouldn't do a wheel swap for me.

The standard rims look like mommy wheels to me and the car overall is a bit feminine so I decided to make it look a bit more aggressive.

Thanks Gil! These are Alpina rims in black/polished from Discount Tire Direct in 18". I was able to keep the OEM tires so it wasn't that expensive and ride quality hasn't suffered a bit at all. This car rides just like the factory intended but definately look alot better.

Now looking for a legal way to tint the front windows to match the back.
