chris perhaps you know? the part number that came with the invoice says 01600-00051-A1 obviously it wasnt red but there was mention of getting one in primer not sure what colour this number refers to

Cheers ! didnt worry about alignment as car has only done 3k so far i managed a special deal cause of a distant connection with one of their men but they do seem good and willing to do deals also managed to put them through my firm so can claim vat back, one advantage of being self employed

yeah it somehow transforms the front end im well pleased pity lexus cant get their act together and keep up with their own latest colours

after brooklands, insperation forced me i used RSR tyres of croydon , cant fault them in any way

hope this works

hope this is allright

as i said in a previous thread brooklands was a bit of an expensive day inspired with new grill, tailpipe and a new set of alloys (and a set for the missus to convince her i needed them) just trying to work out how to post pics now??

someone sprayed my whole car white this morning when it thaws out i will get some piccies i love the instructions you get if only i could read japanese

got me a set of OZ Superleggera Race 18x8 strange thing is the ride is now smoother and quieter ! old = bridgestones new = dunlops sp9000 didnt expect that

picked up my new sports grill yesterday had it sprayed by lexus croydon cost of spraying £80+vat they wanted £45 for fitting but decided 10 mins work doesnt equal £45 15% discount on parts only

im convinced my new alloys being fitted tomorrow ( had to convince wife, by buying a new set for her clio) sports grill being sprayed by lexus croydon brooklands is costing me a fortune

hi again zee loved the eye brows next on list i think

hi zee yes i remember seeing it you must be one of a few who helped me make my mind up in going bigger is the rubbing due to being lowered ? if so what are the the limits to lowering mine isnt yet cause of worrying about warranty, should at least run it in !!

what colour interior you going for chris

hey chris ! what you done to my number plate??

i think im about the only one with the red i love the colour, and by the amount of nice comments i get i think it does look right (back me up claire) as for the oakham interior i spent more time agonising this against the black than the purchase yes it does show dirty marks especially biro (oops) but it is cleanable the cream mats are a no no get black mats

thinking about putting set of 18x8 on anyone with them care to pass comment on:ride, handling etc compared to stock seventeens

i am installing an invertor for ps2 and would like to keep it in the boot, any one knows if there is a suitable supply in the boot area as i dont want to run leads through the car to the ciggy lighter im looking at a 300w 240v supply and am not sure how much 12v power this needs

thanks brian it does seem to be the colour that gets noticed pity they dont do the sports grill in it though lexus croydon are trying to sort it at the moment no doubt will have to get white one then get it sprayed might have to make it worth the sprayers while and get a few more bits!

nice to meet you all thanks for the hospitality and comments nice bunch see ya next meet

as john travolta once said tell me more!!

my experience with insurance companys are they allways start with a low settlement figure because they expect you to want more, they will have a figure which they wont budge on, you have just got to get as near to this as you can another thing is the dealers profit, we all know every dealer has to make it, but your insurance wont pay it, as this is not the value of the car so their price will reflect it try not to use solicitors as you will have to pay them even if the outcome is not what you want insurance companys have lists of solicitors they will use who are experienced in this very thing why not try to tell them you were selling the vechicle prior to the accident and had a serious offer of £18000 ,im sure you can show a few adverts, offers, etc glad youre ok good luck!

If any going to brooklands tomorrow has an exhaust trim for sale i am interested in one how about organising a bring and buy sale ???

i stand corrected what does the solar sensor do ??

sorry i dont mean to sound pompous or anything but have just spent the morning changing permanently open thermostat on an escort van, spent the last few weeks freezing me nuts off, so went to f**d dealer and was given lecture
