Bandit Did you have any luck with those rear lights mate?

No mate :angry:!

I have not updated my post lately due to not having much free time. Well I got a set of crystal-clear fog lights, which I believe they will look smart on the car and a bit different from the rest of the IS on the road. I also decide to get a couple of ARC cool fins to fit on the intercooler pipes. I have not found many reviews on the web, but I was tempting to buy them and have a go. ARC declares that it can decrease the level of temperature up to 10C. Well I will inform you once I have them on the car. So I have many parts to fit on the car once I return home soon.

Thanks Dave.

I also got from Gord his old TRD front lip and a new sport grille to replace my TTE replica bumper. It is ok for the time being with no cracks or anything else but I prrfer to have good quality parts on the Lexus.

I got another small toy yesterday. I purchase a set of Megan Racing Toe Bars for the rear axles to adjust the camber of the wheels. After installing the coilovers and lowering the car I had a negative camber, which I could not adjust. So I got these kit to fix the problem, improve the car stability and also saving changing tyres.

Gord Nice one .... did you get them from the good old USA ?

Yes mate, as always.

Just got a few more parts for the car. Since I have a new TRD cluth and lightweight flywheel waiting to be fitted I found that both parts would work better with an APP direct clutch line, so I ordered one from Japan:

I also got a set of Megan Racing Toe bars to adjust the camber of the rear wheels. After fitting the coilovers and lowering the car the camber of the rear rims was negative and could not be further adjusted with the oem toe bars. So I got these bars which have a bigger angle of freedom to play with the camber.

The above pics are stolen from the web. Actual pics will be posted once both parts arrive home.
