Daizen sways = 500
Tein Flex = 1250
Viper Responder alarm = 600
Racing Hart C2's = 2200
New tint = 200
Replaced Gold emblems with chrome = 75
FSM = 110
Clutch = 200

add that all together and you get roughly $5,135 since the 19th of January. Plus we are about to spend another tree-fiddy on some new front tires, so you might as well call it $5500

well we only have one place here in College Station that I trust to do alarm installs, and that is what they charge (actually I think it was closer to 550, but still above what you have in H-Town)

Oh well, it wasn't my money anyway

the coilovers are about 6-months old and I got them fom another ClubLex user.

As for the emblems, I had my local toyota dealership order them from Sewell Lexus up in Dallas. The two "L" emblems were like $19 each and the "Lexus" and "SC 300" emblems were 21.50 each I believe. Since it was a dealer to dealer thing I didn't have to pay for shipping, and I think tax was only like $6, so I guess the actual total was about $87
