Yeah I'm a member on Lexus Owners Club and someone PM'd me there to say I should come to the Ace Cafe on the 10th...but my car is not modified at all...it's gonna look so plain next to all your ones...

Don't worry about that mate, there may well be other unmodified cars too. It's not a competition, everyone is welcome whether there cars are heavily modded or factory-fresh, doesn't matter ! :biggrin:

No worries...the modification should start coming real soon!!! First on the list...which I have always wanted...but could never find....angel/projector headlights :thumbup: ... and then I want the satin tail lights...and then I'll start on performance...see if I can dig up a turbo or a supercharger I know they are like gold dust...

iLLzLEX most cars are not Moded so really dont worry the guys can help you decide what is worth while doing and whats not.
You acn also ask lots of questions.
The meets are the best place to be seen and discuss what you want for your car as there is normally someone that done what your thinking of and they can give you some great advice.
If your free we have two tickets left for Santa Pod, other than that i see you at Ace cafe

Projector headlights will be a lot trickier, but angel-eyes are pretty straightforward. You can buy the rings off eBay then what you need to do is heat up your headlamps in an oven at a relatively low temperature to soften the glue, then you can open them up, put in the rings and re-seal them afterwards. You can always spray the insides of the lamps while you've got them open.
As Lexusboy says, meets are a great place to get an idea about mods, but be careful, it's a slippery slope ! :laugh:

LexusBoy: I will defo be at ACE Cafe but Santa Pod will have to pass this Sunday as I am doing something...
SteviWevie: LOL...yeah I saw those on E-Bay and I'd like to see the look on my mums face when she sees my headlights in her oven...

If your going to open your headlights up take the orange bits from around the indicator bulbs aswell, looks much cleaner, then you'll just need to but some clear bulbs that flash orange:biggrin:

Yeah good idea, and then might as well replace the sidelight with a nice LED bulb

Got some pics of your car ?
By the way, if you join up as a paid Outlaw member, you get one of those cool rear-window stickers as well as other goodies ! :biggrin:
Welcome iLLzLex - iLLzLex - 18-08-2017
Yeah will put up pics when I come home from work, and yeah I will join real soon
looks cool to have a club sticker...but I'd want a small subtle one like I saw in one of the threads it's like translucent and kind of 3d if you get me...
