hey man i use asda's own brand mate , they are cheap as chips and do the job very well ,i used to use nero to burn but now i just use windows media player on a medium speed , verbatims also work well as i have also used those ,i have always used my lappy to burn the discs, hope this helps.

all that just for a styling mod ! unbelievable yet stav put a twin turbo lump in his is and his premium only went up by £42 lol .its all a great big steaming pile of BS! , just an excuse to put our premiums up , for every year i get another no claims bonus shouldnt my insurance go down ? im sure your all nodding but it never does does it ,then there is the womens only company's isnt sexism illegal? they come up with all these excuses and statistics , the one about your insurance being more if your car is black or red makes me laugh ,then they try to make us blame the non insured drivers that have accidents for putting up our premiums but how do we know there were more claims this year than last , its the insurance company that put up the premiums and noone else ,they divert the blame to others to take the attention away from themselves, why arent we shown proof of their claims , cos by law we have to have car insurance and they have got us by the balls to do what they like and they know it ! feel better now i got that off my chest lol

bought a kit off flea bay for about 18 quid mate http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/WHITE-E-TECH-CAR-BRAKE-CALIPER-ENGINE-BAY-PAINT-KIT-NEW-/370372024374?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item563be49836 this link is for the white but they sell black too , it includes the paint and the degreaser spray and brush , you need to buy a wire brush though to scrub them up first and then degrease as your doin it to get rid of the crap and rust ,i then applied 2 coats to each caliper ,first coat only needs about an hour to dry enough for the second coat which then needs 24 hours to properly cure ,you dont need a seperate laquer for this paint , i painted my horns to match the calipers too , i also have a green lex and decided on gold although i was also going to go for black , put me some pics up after your done mate so i can see what it would have looked like ;)

hey lloyd how you doin man? i got a tape adapter and the sound quality is pretty good , only 2 things that pee me off about it is the wire hanging out and the sound of the stereos tape mechanism rotating all the time , also if you use your phone you will have that phone interference blip de blip noise coming through the speakers now and again which does get on your nerves at times so i would recommend using an mp3 player mate.

bought my lex a year ago which had avon zv5's fitted all round , the tread is still deep on them , their quiet and iv never had any grip issues ,after searching on the net looking for more info on them they are a premium tyre with good reviews and i have not seen a bad word said about them , they are asymetrical so more versatile than a directional tyre and are normally £90 each but black circles.com are selling em for £73 each , cant complain at all tried and tested good all round premium tyre which i will always stick with.

hi robbie had exactly the same problem , bought a new clip from a lex dealer , they are a fiver each mate

my w reg se has got 149 thousand on the clock and its just got through its m.o.t. with only needing a lower ball joint which cost me £125 in total(mot , ball joint and labour) , there were no advisories and the cynical mechanic was amazed , he said my lexus has changed his mind about them completely and it was lovely to drive , the emissions were spot on which what concerned me the most especially as i fitted a k&n panel filter . :winky:

hey man the usual rule of thumb is dark wheels on lighter coloured cars and vice versa , i also have a k green se , i refurbed my wheels and went for gunmetal grey for a different look and i think it looks the dogs , painted my calipers gold which stands out against the darker colours but not too in your face , check out the pics , what you think ? need to sort out my centre caps.

why should cars be like women ? doesnt the lex cost enough lol? (hope the mrs dont see this) anyway back to the subject , debadged mate with the centre logo still on , cleavage is more arousing than full frontal , and a sneaky furry peaky thanks to see through panties is more exciting than an uncovered triangle lol , remember the catalogues as a kid lads?

its a shame lexus dont make speedboats lol , that would be cool

lol good thread i got my lex master key ,my fiances front door key, a swisstec utility key ,and a bullet shape mini petrol lighter . i never thought until now how much you can tell about a person from their bunch's of keys , my fiance my lex and the other two cos im a hunter , three of the things i love the most in life , ill add some pics soon.

i painted my calipers gold , i have a kensington green is200 , wasnt too sure at first but i decided to bite the bullet and go for it and was very pleased with the results , just need to sort out my centre caps now though. red calipers are too common.

good job mate , they look spankin , your in the wrong job mate lol.

hi guys im wondering if my trc is working , when i have turned mine off i hardly notice any difference to be honest , what exactly does it do what should i be noticing or feeling when it is off ?
