What should I do with my $500 GC
I should be getting my $500 gift card any day now, so what should I get with it?
I need new brakes so that is priority 1.
What should I do with the rest?
I currently have:
Wheels
F-Sport Sway bar
F-Sport Springs

^ I thought you could only use the $500 for Lexus service and parts (i.e. not HID fogs or aftermarket low beam bulbs)?

If it's the Lexus GC he can only use for parts and services.

Sell it for ~$450 and buy (non-Lexus) stuff you need (if you can't spend all 500)

if you have a 250 i'd spend it on the upgrade to is350 brakes from sewell. Our 250 brakes suck!

Can you show me which brakes you are referring to?

W-T-F 250 and 350 brakes are different?!
Ive been reading all these reviews of both cars and they all say that it's just the HP that is different.
Sigh.

^ If it's any consolation, the 250 actually has a shorter stopping distance than the 350.

Are you serious? Or is that the specs? If it's the specs, it could be due to the engine weight?
