Thanks so much for doing this SICK. It's about time the ES crowd gets a fair share of the pie!

This does exist. I have the AUTOBACS bar, fantastic value and perfect clearance.

IT'S ABOUT TIME THE 92-96 ES owners get their hands on a body kit.

Signature body kit ( front bumper, fogs, side skirts, rear valence) for under $2,000 and I will be one happy man

IMO springs/shocks are the most practical for a group buy...

Honestly, how much are we going to save by going through the hassle of a group buy?

In my opinion, it would be a much better use of time to buy springs/shocks independently. Not everyone will agree on the same springs (some want a lower drop, some want less of a drop) and shocks (some might want stiffer shocks, some might want softer shocks).

Hassle? R U organizing this? I am helping organize GBs in every forum on my free time cause I want to help my Lexus brothers and sisters get some items in time for the holidays and save some $$$. I've ordered through GBs before and saved money through it and gotten items you would usually get by yourself. If u want to order by yourself go ahead. On top of that Steve Ganz is as enthusiastic as I am and sells with integrity.

No. I've leaving this open for 2 weeks. And the GB will most likely be more than 1 item for the ES. Not sure yet what.

Your welcome.

It does seems springs/shocks are ahead here.

Your thinking in "people will want different things/brands/etc." applies to any part that was mentioned in this thread. I just felt that since springs/struts seemed to be the most practical for all (meaning the price range, not so low, not so high), so most would be able to participate in this buy.

what about the smaller stuff....say like brake pads, oil filter, air filter, wiper inserts....... those can be stocked and people would buy in a little bit larger quantities. and I'm sure Steve can hook us up with those kinda stuff...... just a suggestion

and thank you for organize a GB for the quiter voice of the crowd
