No worries mate.

My brother gave me this car when he left the country, and he was the one who added the emblem on each side and the front - but half of it has fallen off and now only a silver 'shield' shape sits there on the side of the car (I'll get a picture today), so I wanted to replace them - but I haven't found anything to replace them with. I don't particularly like the Lexus logo on its own, and I don't want massive Lexus badges on the side of the car.

If you have any cool ideas what to replace them with, please do share. :)

Steve, you are correct - they are not OEM. The emblem came in a pack of two. One is worn and one is still in the packaging.

Mars, If you're going to be a condescending ****** in your reply, don't bother replying at all. Of course I tried googling it. The back of the package has literally no information; just pictures of other emblems they make.

Hi all,

it's been a while.

I'm hoping one of you guys might know where I can find these? I honestly haven't been able to find them anywhere! :(

i've attached two images; one of the emblem on my grille, which is dying. And the other which is brand new in the packet. My problem is I have one of each emblem on the side of the car by the indicator... so I need a further 2 emblems.

Any help would be appreciated.

South African, eh? Where abouts?

R10,000 is around £900? That's so cheap man. I got quoted £1,800 to spray my Lexus gloss black, and it was only that cheap beacuase it's already that damn colour.

Very nice mate! I'd love to have a lexus just for it to be a drift project! i mean, I'd need to learn how to drift first (only had a rear wheel drive for for 2 weeks..)

Keep us up to date with how this goes bud! Car looks good man. :)

It was on offer from Euro Car Parts....got a set of flat aero wiper blades for £9 too!!

You just have to keep an eye on their site. Join up for emails and you get discount codes from time to time...sometimes they're 50% off!!!.

There's me thinking I've lost my mind as the only ones I saw were above £12.99!

Hi & welcome! :D

Get some pictures up of your new car mate. I love before and after pictures!

Cheers mate. :D I've got the inovit tuning dtm 19" alloys. Currently looking for a replacement centre cap as I lost one of mine.. no idea how though. :|

I'm not 100% sure if I'm honest mate. My brother gave me the car when he migrated. It is lowered, but I don't know by how much. Think it was in the low 30mm legnth springs. I'd have to double check.

In regards to the lights looking darker, I'm thinking it's just the lighting in the photo. To my knowledge they were never changed or modified in any way. :)

You got pics of your car? :)

I see, thanks IHgs300 :)

Thanks bud. :)

The picture is deceiving though :( There's loads of work that needs to be done to it! for example, it's currently at the garage having the codes read so I can see why the engine light is on even after doing the basic checks. Ahh well! Hopefully it's nothing too drastic! :)

Is there another filter that could do with changing since I plan on changing the one in the glove box? Or is that the only one?

Hi & welcome to the forum! :)

Nice car as well mate! You got any more pictures of it?

I've never used the app, but I suppose it's a good way to raise money to pay to keep the website running and that? I'd get it if there was an app for my phone!

£50 for gold membership is enough in my eyes

I had no idea about this. What does the £50 entitle you to?

Yeah, go on then, add me to the list! :) My car won't have been resprayed by then, but it will be good to get involved with the scene.

I'll need to know the finalised location once it's agreed and that. :D

Man, what a nice car!

I've never used the app, but I suppose it's a good way to raise money to pay to keep the website running and that? I'd get it if there was an app for my phone!

I pay £88 per month, fully comp including business insurance (up to 1000 miles a year for business) + an extra £28 one off payment for basic breakdown cover for the year. I'm 21, only been driving for a year (March '13,) and was a named driver beforehand, therefore have 0 years no claims bonus.

TESCO INSURANCE FOR THE WIN!

Hello and welcome to the LOC :)

I can't see the pictures on my Macbook,probably an Apple thing.

As for the meet,just turn up,find a parking space (normally reserved together) and enjoy the chat :)

Think I fixed it now mate. :D

Should be good. Trying to build a bit of a community in the south if we can.

I'm liking the sound of that if I'm honest. :)

Thanks! :) It sounds interesting!

Welcome to the forum chap. Get yourself along to the Dunstable meet on 8th June.

Thanks! :) I'm tempted to. I know this is going to sound silly, but what's involved in a meet?..

You meet other like minded forum members. Have a look at others cars if you fancy it, have some food and friendly conversation :)

That sounds pretty good. :) Where do I find all the information about it, I couldn't see anything on the calendar about a meet?

Yeah, I've got 19"s on mine. 18"s shouldn't be a problem bud. :)

Hi everyone,

I just wanted to introduce myself and get involved with the forum. I've been lurking for a month or so & finally decided to sign up and participate with everything going on in here. :)

Here's a few pictures of my 2004 IS200.

Front side

From back/side

I know there's a few problems with the car. :( I'm getting it resprayed in a few months (around September time). When that happens, it the dents will be smoothed out and stuff. :)

Anyway, I look forward to joining the community and learning new things. Any constructive criticisms are welcome!

**EDIT**

I didn't realise the links for the images I used weren't working until I got home. They should be working now. :)
