Default Aother copy cat design from the Japanese.

Have anyone seen the 2011 Lexus IS's LED DRL, another copy cat design from the Japanese.

im tired of seeing that ish! Especially the cheap aftermarket headlights the ricers have been using lately. If you wanted LED's in your headlights you shouldve purchased an Audi! simple.

I have to laugh when I see those aftermarket ones...is that a beautifully designed luxury car? No, still a civic. FAIL.

Those Lexus LED DRL looks like they came from JC Whitney. Lexus should at lease put some engineering into it like Benz did with the S-Class' LED DRL.

You beat me to creating this thread. When I saw the new IS commercial with the blue car - I went - RS grill, LED'. Does this company have any shame? To me 'L' stands for loser and they are nothing but camry's with leather. Most Lexus drivers have issues.

Most of the Japanese car designes are either pretty boring or ugly these days, Acura and Mazda being the worst. Lexus will be paying for that sudden accelaration mess for years to come.

Default I saw the commercial and I was a little upset, but then I realized this is new LED

technology and soon enough every car maker is going to have some form of LEDs on their cars' whether it is in the headlights or tail lights.

nothing you can do about it

Why do you think everybody copy Audi's LED and not BMW's halo DRL.

Hasn't Chevy copied that - on the charger I think. But I agree LEDs are being copied like crazy. What surprised me was when MBZ copied it.
