Mate i thought the same when i got mine and my dad did say that there is two problems with that way if tape or glue gets hot or wet it would come off at speed and it would be easy for it to be stolen . So i got rid of plastic lugs but kept the two bolts and but atiny bit of sealant around the edge. This has worked well for me and i only drilled three small holes in the boot lid.

Anyone Got A Spare Set Of Headlight Washers?
ynotshi replied to Gareth Rose's topic in Lexus IS200 / Lexus IS300 Club
It all depends if they have changed the pump but they are not hard to do but not easy i but a tte bumper on but took off washers as i think it looks better with out plus i never used them .but your best bet is to go on ebay to get the parts but would check pump to see if they changed it or just clamped the bumper washer jet hose -
Is200 Wheels Touching The Rear Wings
ynotshi replied to Memhis's topic in Lexus IS200 / Lexus IS300 Club
You should be using tyres with a 25 tyre wall or else you speedo will be a little slow so i would go for 235/25/19 or 225/25/19 . It works something like this standard wheels are 215/45/17 so if wheel goes up a wheel size to 18 the tyre wall must drop a inch to 35 tyre wall with no work just a swop of wheels and tyres but if going for 20 inch wheels you will need to have work done to speedo and arches and possibly bump stop on springs . Hope this helps -
Yes will try and explain! First just pull the heated seat/trc switches outbuy putting your hand underneath and pull the tray twords youand they shouldjust come out. Then cover a flat head screwdriver so not to scratch then use it to put under air vent tray and just pop it up and that should come away. You should see two screws heads at top and two at the bottom undo them and the stereo and blower controls will come out together. Thenjust two screws at the sidescto part them. Hope that helps

ive got the bosch spark plugs and i think they work better than the ngki ones that are standard, but i think its up to you and how often you want to change the plugs. iridium plugs should be changed at about 70k miles ,but the bosch ones need to be done at about 25k-35k miles. so cost wise its about the same .

Already tried that and it's still not fitting!!! the screws on the top of the bottom grill seem to be hitting the bar stopping it from going in! thinking might have american size crash bar even though car isn't an import as cant think of any other reason why it wont fit
