Looks great Sam, can you share how you did the headlights, if tint what percentage, and how well your headlights project now. I have been on the fence on this mod for a year.

Default Finally pics!

Only one upgrade so far; New TSW Londrina 20" staggared wheels and new Nexen N7000 tires.

I was a little apprehensive about going to 20s, fearing that it would ride like a truck and lose the "Lexus" appeal, but the car actually rides better and feels tighter than with the OEMs.

I have also considered lowering the car, but the new wheels fill the wells pretty nicely and I do not want any rubbing issues. I do think a subtle aero kit would add a little something (at least the front spoiler)

Enjoy!

Default Hybrid wheel covers (temporarily)

Thanks to iamtheodor, I finally got some some '06 wheel covers to replace my pie plates. Of course, getting the old ones off involved a stuck screw on three wheels, so for a while I had one twist cap and one pie plate.

Eventually, I got them all installed.

When I called my wife to see the difference, she said "What difference?"

At least I'm pleased with the results!

Congrats on your car!
