  1. mate how much for the H&R lowering springs and waht mm drop are they?

  2. Hi all, as i was a owner of BMW 320d for some time, i remeber replacing and cleaning things like the EGR and Oil Breather and in some cases the Crankcase breather, does anyone konw if these parts are fitted in the IS220d, and if they are, where are they? and are they as troublsome like the BMW's
  3. thanks for that ,but i didnt need to disconnect the air bag,just balanced it on top of the steering, and didnt even diconect the side button as the wire is long enough to turnover and take the3 tiny screws out, after looking at the f sport, i decided to put the silver one on instead.. thanks for the write up tho.. i also did a carbon front grill conversion...
  4. there is one part that u said if u disconect the - (negative terminal) from the battery u need to press the brake, 1. after u take off the - pres the brake and hold for 90s b4 dismantling the steering airbag or 2. after u take off the - wait 90s and press the brake once b4 dismantling the steering airbag or 3. after u take off the - press the barake once and wait 90s b4 dismantling the steering airbag thanks
  5. that looks quality (masha allah), i think u should do the wood trim too to match it with the window switch, and dont do the odo cover, it'll go ott.. but its ur view that counts, might give it a try my self.. thanks to the write up
  6. Hey Faz, i was at Lexus Birmingham mate and they got a deal for the SR kit but without the bot spoiler.. given a call i think it something like 300 for side skirts and front & back bumper lips.. hurry up b4 it goes.
  7. im still thinking about... i does look nice, but maybe im use to bmw and they sit very nicely on the tyres, and i also had my lexus is200 se lowered 35mm, and it drove with no problems and felt as normal and looked the business.. so i might just get it done... if u do i will post some pic
  8. well to be honest, u need to phone around of look on the net, i got mine from Lexus in London, thro a friend of a friend, i just got luck.. but i'll keep a eye out, so i'll let u know if they have anymore.. and it is the SR kit and its 100% genuine just for u knowledge i believe some Lexus dealerships have their kit ordered from Japan, and some from Germany.. its the Japan one u want cuz they might have the offers on.. thats wat i was told anyway, could be jargon...lol UPDATE 11/10/10 i fitted my rear bumper spoiler... wat a bitch to do (the is250 bumper shape is different and slightly longer and im not talking about the twin exhaust),we had to cut hol;e for the pipes and then the edges where sticking out so fibre glass to blend in and the corner were a touch out to filled them with clear silicon and painted over) took 6hrs to fit, never again,but it was well worth the work.. just got spoler and front lip and exhaust conversion. probably would of been better if u got a 250 bumper, then fitted the lip on..lol pictures will b up next week. 13/10/10 - Bodykit fitted and exhaust done, just tints and lowering left to do.. i cant seem to upload the pic as they are too high is pixels.. i will do a short pic video and post it on youtube.. once its done i will put the link very soon.
  9. brilliant.. i got a kit of 16 od them tools, so i'll get on to that on sunday, thanks
  10. I got a Spanking Deal with Lexus on the body Kit its selling at the dealers for £1500 inc VAT for: 1 Rear Bootlid Spoiler 2 Rear Twin exhaust Bumper Spoiler 3 Front Bumper Lip Spolier But would u believe my Luck i Got it all for £400+120 to get it sprayed, and i can fit myself as i have done these b4 the exhaust with the Box will cost £200 that includes the Screamer (makes a noise like a speed boat, (sound perfect) but only when u put ur foot down) or without the box £150.. by professional (TorqueFlow in Birmingham), as seen in the sport Mags and provides life time guarantee like i said once i get it all sorted i'll putsome pic's up, probably a weeks time

      TBH.. if u are gonna keep the 18" on then go for the 35mm h&r.. the reason why i went for the 30mm drop is cuz im gona put some 19" alloys.. and i dont want it to rub or roll the wheel fenders, especially when i put my mates or fam in it.. i done mega research b4 choosing.. trust me, my car is perfect and handles brilliant.. and like usaid it look good.
