I gave you a plus one. I kinda like it. And it was a member on here who started the beef, after disagreeing with a Lexus emblem being on a Solara, and got the bandwagon of disses going. Do your thing.

The LEDs look fine, but the halos could be left out.

Let the man do what he wants to do... chill out everyone... like he said, hes just experimenting because he screwed up his headlights, so why not??

The lexus emblems just make it look different, i dont think hes looking for resale value like someone stated.

And about the headlights, i think if you did it in the headlight area the LED strip should be longer, and personally i dont like the red circles because they are too small and uneven, maybe if you line the DRL's with it, it would look better.

That someone would be me.

I really don't care what people do to their cars, its their thing and I respect that. What made me and some others to hate on this guy is because of that "genius" comment that he wrote in an earlier post.

Do what you want to your car, BUT when you ask for opinions or comments....well respect what others have to say...or don't ask. :drinking: :drinking: :drinking:

regardless of that, hes still a new member, and if you didnt know how much that guy really knew about the car, then it would sound like a pretty stupid question... all im saying is its nothing for everyone to flip out about...

I say its a fail.

The LED's make it look like an Audi wannabe.

However, I will give you an idea that would look killer....

Dual Projector mod for the headlights, and why not do what Dawgz said.... white LED strips for the fogs?..

But I have to be honest again in telling you that the LED strip is getting played out by the Honda ricers... seen too many of them out on the road in NYC already. Keep the mods subtle, yet purposeful, and you will be more than happy when done.

;)
