Default New 2IS owner

I was told that this was the place to find out about VA/MD/DC area meets. I just purchased a 2IS about 3 months ago. I was wondering what are the minimum requirements to join NELOC. I looked through the pics of Harrisburg and looked like alot of fun. This is my first LEXUS and I'm new to the whole scene. I have a lot to learn about the car. Look forward to meeting with some of you.

250 awd SGM/black i saw the pics i looked a black one but they only had it with the grey interior. it was a little hard on the eyes so i got the SGM and that is the color the wife was dead set on so she won that battle. but its still as nice care no matter the color.

once im finshed with the truck i will be putting some mods on the car. i figured that i would start with rims and lowering kit. ive been doing a lot of research for it and its a lot harder than custom trucks. anything will fit on a truck and if it dosent fit cut,beat,or bend it till it does. i have to be a little more gracefull with the car. there are so many diffrent products out there it is hard to choose from.

well...if you need help or advice with anything just let me know being we both have the awds i've pretty much finished mine, i'm just gonna paint the chrome around the grill black and possibly add the joe z intake...and MAYBE throw the tanabe exhaust on down the road you should join us at the next harrisburg meet in september...then you can see how the tanabe springs look in person and decide if thats the lowering route you'd like to take i could throw some redouts on your tails too lmao


oh and my name is Cathy btw

LOL, it's fun watching you transform, obviously you've already had the 'bug' in your system, has CL made it that much worse? How's your other half dealing with all this?

nice to meet you im James. im gonna need all the help i can get. i will try to get up with you guys at the next meet. im all about low he who dies with the lowest vehicle wins. i havent seen the red outs in person just on the web. the people down here dont do too much on their cars. they just drive them. i see alot of 1IS's here but very few 2IS's as far as i know im the only AWD so far.

well..CL just gives me more ideas...i def had the mod bug in me before i found this site tho dans doin fine with all this..hes actually the one that suggested we splurge and get the iforged wheels i really wanted for the gl instead of settling for something that was cheaper/not what i really wanted he loves how the cars look when im finished with them he just doesnt want to know all the details in between lmao
