I would also like to add another issue, In AZ you only get 1 license plate, however in NV & CA, that is a no,no you must have both front and rear plates. So I am in violation technically. Oh and tinted windows are also unlawful in CA. Here in AZ the police have tinted windows, So... It will be an interseting day in a California Court if I am ever cited.
The Lexus does not have "blue headlights" All OEM HIDs are 4100K - 4300K in color temp. The blue scatter you see from time to time is caused by the lenses and not the light itself. If you walk up to a lexus with its lights on or shine their lights on a wall you will see they are pure white.
