just saw a real set installed on a RHD cygnus... https://carsandbids.com/auctions/KYGz0QVv/2000-toyota-land-cruiser-cygnus

definitely. The Borla was WAY quieter than what I wanted, my point was if you could live with it open after the cats (free to test and was pretty similar in sound to what mine sounded like with how my muffler was rusted out) you'll definitely be ok with adding some other resonator and pipes...

It's not nearly as loud as you fear. I've mentioned this before, but I was extremely unimpressed when I first installed my Borla cat back exhaust (failed inspection due to holes in muffler). Turned out that running open pipes (after the cats) was basically what I'd been doing since I bought the...

I love the "TRD Amateur" sticker!

I've been pretty happy with my Prinsu. Mine doesn't have a significant lip from the side rail that sticks up past the cross bars. There is not much gap between the side rail and roof, but it mounts (IIRC) to 3 of the 4 sets of factory roof rack mounts. There's not a ton of clearance to secure...

moved to DM, no need to clutter this thread

air helpers. They'll install inside the coil and you just air them up to add support for additional load. Amazon.com: Air Lift 1000 Series Air Spring Suspension Kit - 60728 | Compatible with 1991-2006 Toyota Land Cruiser; 1996-1997 Lexus LX450; 1998-2002 Lexus LX470 : Automotive -...

Definitely looks like you scored on that one. Best color too!

as far as "presence", removing the factory running boards does a lot to add to the appearance of a lift as well

@speedmerch I don't know that I'd be too hesitant to make an $8k offer myself, but I also do a lot of that work on mine myself... I don't see anything terribly concerning regarding rust, but would want to see pictures of the hidden lower fender behind the rear wheels/bumper, the bottom inside...

right? crazy that by entirely changing the front end design from what's actually there they look better :rofl:

well, shoot. they responded with a "you might check these out, as they sound like what you're looking for"... look familiar? https://prismbeam.com/collections/lexus-lx470-1998-2002/products/prismbeam-1998-2007-lexus-lx470-smoked-led-projector-headlights-set there is at least a video of the DRL...

I did contact sharplightinnovations to see if they'd be willing to do a custom build, with a possibility of producing them. I'd love to have the LED output I've got on my vette with a much more subtle styling that is actually close to matching the look of the LX. I kinda hate that everything is...

the one point of hope that I have for these is that the projector looks to be the same type I have in my corvette headlights, and they are fantastic... the light output is incredible, and the horizon cutoff does look exactly like the picture they show. the function for both looks similar down to...

:meh: They advertised 35% off, and the "34.2% off" shown there is about consistent with what I saw when I put the radiator in my cart the other day. Again, just sharing what I got in their email, and it may not be the best deal out there (especially without free shipping).
