lexus like acura are american based companies. over sees our Lexus IS300 is the Toyota Altezza. They started here by putting a segmented light on the sport ute. It had spearate bulb housings trimmed in gold or silver all surrounded in red (instead of chrome) with a clear lense over everthing. Then they brought the Altezza to the states under the IS300 moniker and the fad took off. Now their sport utes use the chromed housing and has fed the scene more than they think.
