Dave, is there anyway that we could get our hands on the full native resolution pictures from your stash? Or are they edited after resizing/cropping? A donation would obviously be made in exchange

Hey guys, the flickr page allows you to save 1000px wide photos. If you need bigger just throw me a pm with a link to the shot and we can get it setup.

Wow, there's a Lexus group/meetup in Calgary?!
No Lexus group in Edmonton as far as I can tell.
I'll watch for your meetups next spring and come down one weekend.

Sexy photos! Wish I could've made it there too. But a cracked bumper isn't very photogenic is it?

Off topic but I'm a calgarian and a new owner of an is350. I came from a BMW 545 modded out and am currently looking for anything I can get my hands on locally. So where do you guys get your parts locally? I'm looking for aftermarket goods since Canada didn't get the f sport package. (I know Lexus of Calgary sells the f sport exhaust and intake)
Thanks in advanced!

Don't bother with Lexus of Calgary. Their service isn't particularly great, and their prices will amaze you. In a bad way. Locally, there isn't much. Pretty much everything is ordered in unless you're doing custom work, then you're at Home Depot.

What are you interested in finding? I've been able to find some parts in Canada, none in Calgary though. Just about everything I've ordered is from the US or Japan. Also, what colour & year of IS?

Some good places to start for the IS are;

L-tunedparts.com (mostly higher end parts)
is.sewellparts.com (every oem IS part you could want, sign up and register your forum name for additional discounts)

You're still gonna get nicked at the border for customs and all that jazz unless you're like me and have a US shipping address. Locally, there's not much though.

Jimmy has a shop to get stuff too. My bad. Jimmy is legit too! (there's your plug ******* bahaha) But really, he's a good guy and know's what's up.

I kind of figured the question was like go to the store to buy a part and take it home that day.

Speaking of, you find me a rear body piece yet? Or are you going to continue to hate on me for Tom's?
