a squirrel Posted December 17, 2007 Share Posted December 17, 2007 Hey everyone, I am new here, but have had a 1991 LS400 for about two years now. I have been looking around for some simple, cheap mods to do to just make my car look better. My car is maroon on top and a greyish mov color on the bottom. I have bought bright headlights and thats about it so far. There are three things that I am set on doing and I'd like some quick feedback/suggestions or even new mods you can suggest. Idea #1: Tint Rear Tail Lights Slightly Dark (lighter than in pic becuase its illegal in California) http://www.lexls.com/tutorials/lighting/ti...taillights.html (all black) http://www.custommagnums.com/forums/stylin...taillights.html (tape off brake lights) Idea 2: New Ignition LED (I was thinking either blue or white led) http://www.lexls.com/tutorials/lighting/ignition.html Idea 3: Remove Yellow From Fog Lights http://www.lexls.com/tutorials/lighting/fogs.html Thanks for any input or suggestions, and sorry for the really big pictures.

FEASTJAPAN Posted December 17, 2007 Share Posted December 17, 2007 How about some crystal clear lower maker lamps? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lexls Posted December 17, 2007 Share Posted December 17, 2007 Hey, that's my car! If tinting is illegal in your state don't even bother. With all mods it boils down to what YOU like, not what someone else thinks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ko90ls Posted December 17, 2007 Share Posted December 17, 2007 How about some crystal clear lower maker lamps? I my opinion the clear corner lights look the best! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sonyman Posted December 18, 2007 Share Posted December 18, 2007 The only modification I support would be the ignition ring. Tinted taillights look stupid IMO and decrease visibility for other drivers. Also, believe it or not, removing the yellow glass from the foglights decreases their usefulness significantly. Yellow light is much better at penetrating fog than white light. If you do decide to remove the yellow glass, try to find yellow bulbs, if they even exist.

I see exactly what you mean, but there isn't much fog in San Diego. I have never actually had to use my fog lights, but I see where you are coming from. I just purchased a white and blue led for the ring, and need to decide which one I like better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
