The best thing to do:

Meet us at one of our ClubLexus meets!

You get to meet people that are not only passionate about our cars, but also have done several mods already. We can offer ideas, advice, and contacts.

The next one we have in SoCal is our Memorial Day meet. It's not that big of a meet, but you'll get to meet quite a few 2IS members.

Check out more info in our SoCal sub-forum in the main page. I hope to see you there!

About how often are meets held? And on average, how many people show up?

Depends.

Small groups try to see each other about once a month. Those are typically about 20 cars big.

Large meets happend 3-4 times a year. The biggest one this year was our Presidents' Day Weekend meet, which had about 100 cars! The next big meets are BOS and EOS, which you can find more info in our SoCal forum.

Welcome to Club Lexus! Like Phil suggested, you should attend a meet. That way you can check out everyone's mods close up and talk to the owners to ask what they did to their cars.
