Thanks mate :)

you should have kept 16v rears. lexus lights are the worst mod you can possibly do to a car

Ok each one to their own and all that but the lights are a terrible mod imo...the car is coming along really well but the 16v tail lights looked way better but if you like em then fcuk everyone else but I'd of stuck with the originals or got 6n2 all red rears!! Best of luck with rest of the car dude ;)

Not a fan of the Lexus lights.

If you've limo'd the front windows too then that's no good... and illegal...

Keep the neons just don't turn them on ;) if the tubes are showing though that's no good...

All of the above are only my opinions though. It's your car and if you're enjoying it that's the main thing! Looks clean and tidy!

I agree with the lowering comments don't stray into the norm though my friend...

Should have kepted the 16v rearlights as the are darker and would look ok with the black car with black tints

:thumbsdown:

Lol noooo not Lexus lights. Either stick with the 16v ones or the get the red clusters from the 6n2. Get rid of the exaust tip.

Lower the thing.

Get rid of the neons or wait till you've lowered the car and then wait for them to smash up :)

Otherwise, pretty tidy car.

Remember, at the end of the day you drive the car not us so follow whatever style you want mate.

All the best.

Wrong! How to do what YOU want with YOUR car! Ok the rear lights arent to my taste, but its not my car. They may look better tinted black btw mike, then youll just get the lights showing up when they're on :thumbsup:

tints, nice, alloys, could look nice painted a deft colour, drop er do the ground, and shel be as sweet as..

thats my opinion, which u asked for,

but as for the exaust.. good god..lol even if you want the sound of it, shorten the pipe and put it behind the bottom panel where the standard one is, might make it hot tho.. neway in gna stop b i wafle ne more!

keep er lit tho, still nit to bad, it unique.

Thanks mate :) the sound system was dimming all the lights before i got the power cap

I stuck up for you over the neon issue, but the lexus lights are too far man! They look terrible and thats not an opinion... thats a fact.

Yeah, i'm starting to feel like it was a really bad idea getting the lexus lights lol going to change back to 16v rears

Stick them on ebay and spend the money on a set of shocks and springs from PhilJ on here! Sorted!

I'm getting some coilovers for the car soon but had to buy sum rears has the 16v rears i had on before had a crack in one of the lights

oh no my eyes :shock: lexus lights :lol:

yep was waiting for a response along the lines of that..

i just think its a bit sad as a good 16v is fairly hard to come across and doing stuff like the above makes you wonder why bother?

okay its his car.. yes he can do what he likes to it.. but people post their builds on this forum to get feedback which i have given, if hes happy with the car then peoples opinions shouldnt matter to him, just wants to know what people think I'm guessing?

2p.

If we sound a little harsh or judgemental, just bare in mind that we're only trying to help. To be honest we've all been there and done some rather horrid mods. I mean my car USED to look like this ffs lol:

Granted I never had Lexus lgihts but still :p

Its just that you don't wanna spend loads on your current mods then realise that going Euro is the way forward and start all the way from scratch (happened to me).

Less is more at the end of the day. This is the way I would do things:

1) Debadged grill, clear indicators (front and sides) and red or 16v rear clusters

2) Get the exhaust tip sorted out

3) Lower the thing

4) Get some decent rims

5) Smooth the front bumper

We're all here to help mate so if you need any info just ask. The people on here are really useful :)

All the best mate

P.S- My headlights you see in the pic are for sale if you want them. They cost LOADS new but I'll sell them to you for cheap.
