How do you like the SRX Escort? Did they have to drill another hole in the back for the wiring rear mount? I was thinking getting the same, but not to keen on the rear mount.

Like the mods though! Do you have any pics of the modified resonators?
i really like the SRX, they didnt drill any holes in the rear the wiring comes through the rear plate holes and just uses the plate screws to be held on. the front jammers they had to notch my lower grille. i like it alot. its saved me a couple times already and i love how stealth it is. no pics of the modified resonators, i could take pics of the ones that were removed tho LOL

On the emblems: Does the "IS" on the back have holes behind the emblems? I am thinking of removing them completely. I tried with the Lexus one and it had two holes behind it.
all of the emblems DO have holes behind them. the only ones i'm not sure on are the side F's because i havent removed them yet

Default Black Pearl Grille Surround

Hey guys, Cathy asked me to chime in on the surround so I will post up the info on it.

Originally we wanted to plate it here in the US, but none of the companies who plate wanted to do it. They said it was not possible. So our next option was to get it done in Japan were NO is not an option it seems. The got us the grille surround and plating as one peice.

We do have them available for sale, and they are listed on our site already. If you need the link to my site or the price please PM as I don't want to turn Cathafer's thread into a sales thread.

We also did all the emblems pearled including the side fender ones as well. Those are a fully dipped palting process that outlast anything coming out of Lexus emblems.
