I own a courier business which I employ 1 office staff, 3 loaders and 16 drivers and I usally work in the office aswell but Im known to deliver and load sometimes when my staff are sick or on holiday, and dont get me started on tax lol.

lol actually Im not a daddys boy, my dads really tight lol, I run my own business, so much better to be your own boss

Hey guys Im saying goodbye to the lexus forums as Im going to be selling my IS250 as I have bought myself a new birthday present, not bad for a 26 yr old. Its been great thanks for all the tips.

I like the wheels,im not a fan of the spoiler but i dont like spoliers anyway. Does need lowering with springs dont worry about coilovers and the tint looks good aswell. Dont debadge it...its not a cheap corsa or saxo etc

lol no problem, I bought them from VANSTYLE.CO.UK they have only the IS200/IS300 listed so you have to ring them up, my fronts and rears cost something like £63, the guy will also say he has the IS250 US spec only deflectors, and doesnt realise they are all IS250s are all the same shape lol. They are cool, they are a very snug fit so no problem with them falling off. They came with a stupid blue sticker on, so I just peeled them off with some olive oil and stuck some TANABE decals on them. But I had the same problem i rang and emailed loads of companies to find the rears.

Yeah I did think about having the lip finished in black but ive decided to upgrde my 17s to 19s now lol, but I wont be getting any mirror lip rims anymore.

BTW are have mirror lips so no they are not from lexus lol, and I fought the message was pretty clear. I know a good refurbisher because he refurbed my type R wheels last year, I was just wondering if anyone else had this problem with mirror lips? Because they are a pain in the arse to maintain.

Hey guys Ive got some black rims with a mirror lip and they have become quite pitted at first i fought they just needed a good scrub but ever how much i clean them they still look crap. Ibe borrowed some hardcore wheel cleaner from a friend but that hasnt even worked, any ideas???

I find the red stuff fine on the roads for everyday use, Ive had mine for about a year and they are still holding up fine and I drive like a boy racer lol. I have yellow stuff on my type R and they are very good they are more for track racing, but I find very good still for everyday use and the stoppage is awesome. I would imagine you could use standard pads with the discs I dont see why not, Im not sure about your rears being differnt to the front I would think the discs dont matter to much as for the pads im not sure I always like to keep my stuff the same otherwise I replace the whole lot but thats just me.

Hey guys Im thinking of buying a carbon fiber bonnet for my car but not sure if it would stand out that much since my car is cadoxtan slate??

hey harmeet

i have ebc discs and pads,i use red stuff. I have neva had a problem with ebc products i think there a great price and are very reliable .

You can remove them but you wud be left with a indent plus i like them coz they go well with the chrome rim round my wheels and the badges are still in chrome, my wheels are 17s the reason I stuck with them is coz i drift so goin up a size wouldnt benefit me, i was goin to downsize to 14 which would be perfect but i cant botherd as i do well wid my 17s

Hey guys well as promised I had something lined up I went in for a key scratch and ending up doing this tell me what you think, Ive got mixed reviews from family and friends, but i love it.

I also had a few test runs of smoking my rear deflectors and rear lights but didnt turn out right so stayed tuned for more.

Hey Chris im from Reading to! Anyway I always get my pads and disks from EBC or try euro car parts

Hey parvi

Its very easy, just open your bonnet and the grill is attached by some screws just unscrew these and the grill pops off. Then I got a mate to prime and spray my grill the same colour as my car. Then just pop your grill back in and put the screws back in. :) hope this helps.

there called ANGEL by ZCW :)

I would be very interested in buying a s/c put me down for one

Hey guys this post has been a abit quiet so I fought I would let you guys know ive been sorting out some more mods so watch this space I should have them sorted out in a few weeks. :)

No i dont use it, didnt even realise i had it

hey guys i was goning to replace my chrome badge for a black pearl and when i rang up lexus and ive found out my front emblem is worth £400 becasue mine has a built in pre crash sensor or something, ive always wondered why my emblem looked differnt to everyone elses

Hey guys I guess 67525 fits the is250 but anyone know if 67515 would fit the rear??

I couldnt find any mesa red with the gold emblems. I think black preal/smoked would like awesome on it. You could also respray your chrome grill overlay the same red or as smoked. Its very easy to do the bit just unscrews.

The emblems are the same but gold does not look good but thats just my opinion. I would get black pearl/smoked emblems but depends on the colour of your car

yeah ill be goin with the lads, since im only about 30 mins away. Im taking my is250 and bro taking his type R should be a good day :)

Yep grip the bulb as near the base of the bulb as you can and make sure you use a thick double sided sticky tape and needle nose pliers and give a bit of a wiggle and it will pop straight out make sure to apply abit of pressure but not to much, I had the same problem as you I could not get the two bulbs out. To get the cover off I used a small flat head screwdriver I got mine from a party cracker, just be gentle and ease it off.
