Default IS350 LED converstion?

I rode in my cousin's new IS350 and all the lights on it are LED.

There are lights under the sideview mirros to light up the ground when you unlock the doors.

One LED mood light where the sunglasses holder is that lights up the shifter area when driving at night.

LED license plate lights. There are 4 super bright LED's for the driver and passenger.

LED lights in the footwell area during night driving.

I was thinking about going to the lexus dealer and actually buying these parts and then I'll figure out a way to retrofit the Z with them.

Anyone have an idea on how much they cost?

Possibly a grip esp from Lexus. Good luck with it cuz it'll take a good amount of time.

consult with acree, he is very knowledgeable in the LED realm.

Footwell lighting is already available for the Z as a JDM product. You can buy the kit online. IIRC, it is plug-and-play.

Friend of mine has an IS350 too, I love how his license plate lights are super white, almost a xenon look, and then he has halogen headlights.

The new IS350 is really nice. My friend's girlfriend just got one. It's pretty quick too.

Yea...it's an option. You'd think every Lexus would have standard Xenon's by now wouldn't you?
