Congrats on getting the car back. The feel of driving your own car is just great.

I am sure George is also very excite to be able to ride in the IS.

The HKS is new, I had Tanabe before which was demolishished.
I also added Tanabe springs for 3/4 drop all around.

Looks great, Liz. I was at Joe's on Saturday getting my new Odyssey Clear Bra'd... I couldn't believe how much time those guys spent polishing the paint on your car! I especially liked how they even painted inside the entire trunk with the non-gloss BWB, just like the factory does. It's all about the details.

I helped a tiny bit with the spring installation, mainly serving as technical advisor and making sure it was getting buttoned-up properly. The new mufflers look killer, too.

Congratulations. Worth the wait, I hope...

BWB looks great with the grey interior. Curious George is a must option, and I like the Malibu shots, that is a great area around Pepperdine University. Where did you obtain the Club Lexus decall for the rear window?
