Cheers

Hi Paul

Ive just fitted some black surround Lexus lamps onto my Black MCS and they look fab!

not a fan of the chrome ones but the black back ground on black body work seems to work a treat imho.

how I have the choice of normal orange/reds - white/clears - or my new black Lexus rears ....

just in the process of moving house - but will take some pics soon and post them.

Heres some I made earlier

they look great at night

(damn my cars filthy)

Hey Chew, I'm thinking about getting those lights, have you any pics of your rear full on? The rear of your Mini that is

I have tons of pics of my MCS from all angles - BUT I moved house this weekend and only managed to fit the lamps the day before the move....anyday now and i will take some...

(Im after a black boot trim to replace the chrome one if anyone knows where to get these from)

also have some full frontals and rear shots too.....but I wont post those!!!

Here is a different style also calling itself Lexus Style lights.

I like the ones like chew, specially since my car is black. lexus can look a bit chav IMO but then again, is a mini ever chav?!

chew · Apr 20th, 2006, 08:36 AM

I went to the Mini show at Stafford in Feb?? and imho there were several OTT chav-esque Minis present that made me cringe somewhat....covered with RS badges every "Mini Sport" catalogue item fitted too them! way OTT

subtle is the way ;-)

sorry but it reminds me of a chavy corsa, But thats my opinion, Dont take offence.
Prefer the clear ones from BM, dont look as chavy, Shutlines on aftermarket lexus are normally shocking. As i said all to our own though

rear end pic as requested

Roofas · Apr 24th, 2006, 11:04 AM

sorry for being cheeky

chew · Apr 24th, 2006, 11:32 AM

Took them yesterday with my mobile phone - will do some better ones but you get the idea

Roofas · Apr 24th, 2006, 12:03 PM
