What do you guys think? Just took delivery today. This is my fifth LX, but first 200. I am psyched.
My new slightly modified 2017 LX570

Nice!
One thing I'll say for the LX...
-They REALLY make that paint look SOOO glassy! I mean... like GLASS.
Saw one yesterday as it pulled up in front of me. It was a dark grey, and I swear it looked like the back of one of those new iPhone X's. Never seen paint on an LC look like that...I wonder what they do to it that looks so dramatically different.
Also really curious how the ARB (and other bumpers) deal with the grill. The LC grill stays intact, but with such a tall, continuous grill, I wonder how that works.
Anyway... CONGRATS!

I saw a video of one where they basically chopped off half of the grill and put a bumper on. I might wait a few years to do that
Wheels and tire's look good with your new ride. What size wheels and tire's? I found when I put BFG AT/KO2's 285/55/20 on mine I found that since the truck tire's weighed around 15lbs more per tire and needed to have at least 43 lbs of air for correct psi. I now run my LX in comfort mode and it provides a solid, comfortable ride.

285/65/18. They are currently at 38 pounds and the ride is good. I may monkey with that a bit.

Looks much better with the wheels and tires but too much chrome for my taste, however those headlights are mean looking. Love it! Now if you can add a arb bumper w/winch it would be serious luxo package I’d like to have.

If you look closer there is no chrome!!! Everything that was Chrome is Matte Black.

Wow. Didn't notice that. Helps the look a LOT, IMO.
Dang, I didn’t notice that. Definitely has a much more sinister look. That front end with a Arb Sahara color matched bumber would look amazing. How did they make that front end matte black? You got me thinking
The sliders would be a tough workaround

The Recommended Cold Tire Inflation Pressure for those LT285/65R18 tires on your 2017 LX570 is 37psi F/R so you're already pretty close - not much monkeying required
Nice looking rig!
HTH
I think it needs one of these:

God awful looking tires. Did them get them off a Mini Semi truck. Lol
Typical sand tires for the Arabian peninsula. Agreed though, they do nothing for the styling of the LX haha

Too many cruisers, not enough time
Whoa, I am a LandCruiser guy, but that is one very good looking vehicle!
