+1 for the rear tray and armrest trim/latch... To add to the wishlist I'd like to see a more inexpensive CF fog cover like Lems, grill surround and as a stretch maybe a cf rearview mirror?

If they could take our stock shift **** and put the silver CF where the plastic chrome is, thatd be cool. For a fair price..

Seriously, it would be great to have a real splitter and a wing that doesn't look too ridiculous.
On the contrary I want a wing as ridiculous as the Veilside stuff

A VENTED CF hood like the link below. I would love to have one just like M3 Vorsteiner hood.

Only one I know of that we have available is the iCode one which is around 3K=rediculous and the vents on the side of the hood make it ugly IMO.

I'd also like the rear seat tray in matching texalium however not the entire thing. I have Alpine seats and so having the entire tray in that finish would make it less like two separate seats like it is now. I'd like just the center portion of the rear seat tray in matching texalium, just like what that guy was planning to do over at the my.is board but never ended up doing except for one or two. I think lowrideraz has it. Don't have a pic with me but some of you might know what I'm talking about.

Also, if not too expensive:
- Foglight covers (black CF)
- Pieces around the steering wheel buttons (matching texalium)

For the 2011 models, Lexus added a silver strip on the top of the glove box cover:


^ I'd like that piece in matching texalium.

Whatever happened to the JoeZ exhaust tips? Me waaaaant....

The racers melted them.... The daily drivers are enjoying them....

Longterm repeated HIGH HEAT drive cycles will even cook the OEM tips to a golden crisp back there...

But normal daily driving is OKAY.

So I told him, I don't really know, but I'll ask them.

I had a couple ideas myself. What do you guys think of theses and please let me know what else to add to this list!
- Engine Cover (Either Full or Half Coverage like the one on our ISF)
- Backseat Middle Part
- Side Mirror Covers
- Foglight Covers

Nice

And because of this you stopped manufacturing them? Or you are trying to find a solution that can take more heat?

I still want them, I imagine they might survive a little bit more here in cold Sweden too

My thoughts exactly. Functional aero parts that are lightweight and stylish would suffice.
