    First, there will be overlays for the original front and rear bumpers of the Lexus, thus making it more individually standing on the road.

    Furthermore, the mesh is separated by horizontal protrusions, continuing the bars of the main radiator grille. This styling treatment has its reasonable explanation and it is to underline the width of the car, making it look more dominant and masculine. At last, the rear of the LX 570 looks more elegant thanks to the overlay added onto the rear bumper, while the dark and contrasting diffuser is making the crossover sportier and way more aggressive.

    We are definitely looking forward to this project with excitement and enthusiasm. Stay tuned for more exclusive Larte Design news!
