:shock: A set of lexarse lights I actually quite like! :shock:

:shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock:

The paint really does make a hell of a difference, well done!

Not sure about the front bumper though. Looks good from the front (although the huge low grille says 'wannabe 407' a bit, but the 407's gorgeous so I'll allow it), but it all goes wrong on the side view. It looks like a ford escort! :(
<steve_earwig> I think this forum is more about keeping our cars going with minimal outlay than giving our cars more reason to go bang

Welton, you evil sod :lol: The boy done ok i reckon, I'd think the "escort" look would disappear if the whole car was in the shot. I would say that now the back end is looking too standard by comparison (says Mr. Bog-standard-all-the-way.)

Not so sure about the super-size wheels though, I presume the roads in Belgium are incredibly smooth...

Thanks all for the comments

good you love the red lexus, I had to search long befor i had found something to do with them, but i had a good tip from a friend.

@ mjb: how do you see the resemblance between my car and a ford escort???
I look really good and still i dont see the resemblance. :D

@steve_earwing: 19'' super-size? if I had found a good 20'', then I had bought those. :D
roads in belgium, some places good, but not everywhere... :D

@mav: a have an other rear bumper and he is very low and wide(pics), but I find him not appropriate, then the back comes lower than the other bumpers and so ...
so one of the next plans is making my on rear bumper, with pieces of that other one.. :D
not so wide, but a bit lower than the original one... :D

small problem:
during driving off the parking of work (we had to take another way, because they started to work at the beginning of the parking) in a small well against a metal projection of an old railway driven with the front bumper, number plate put under and connection left had come loose.

therefore to make him, we put him back original
