Got rid of my last Lexus almost a year ago, got myself into an older Honda as a daily....and now, thanks to Mike (passnu2), I'm back in another Lexus.

List of things to do:

--get door ding on rear quarter pulled
--get bumper rashes fixed
--get little nicks on the interior taken care of (driver side door panel handle, nick on center console)
--Weather tech mats
--either get a new deck lid spoiler or get the cheap CF one currently on the car painted
--get a set of wheels (thinking of some Volk GTM's, or use my set of JP Scaras)
--full lip kit (thinking Vertex front and sides, GFX rear)
--aftermarket exhaust (or just cannisters)
--tints
--F-sport or IS-F shift ****
--replace wood trim with something else
--fix/replace driver side headlight
--fix (or figure out) why driver side window switches don't work (for some reason, on the driver side control, only the driver's window goes up and down, other swtiches only on that control do not work).
--paint match the engine bay covers to body color

All in all, I want a nice looking car without killing the driveability for daily or kill reliability...the GS was great for that....although having it dumped the way it was really killed the front bumper and the exhaust on that car. I hope CL Chicago has gotten more active than we've been the last couple of years...I'd love to start doing the summer hang-outs with Chicago crew.

Try resetting the window switch to see if that fixes your window issue. https://www.clublexus.com/forums/is-...isconnect.html All you got to do is disconnect the battery for 30 seconds and plug it back in. Then roll each window down and up manually going from driver, passenger, rear right passenger, and rear driver side. I have an HKS Hi-Power exhaust on my IS350 soon for sale since I'm doing straight pipes next. It sounds great with the HKS but I want louder lol.

Chi...would love to hear the HKS before you take it off. I could be interested in the exhaust, depending on sound and price.

BTW, thanks for the window switch reset procedure! I'll give it a try tomorrow.

Who is this mysterious person you speak of

Urmil: These FSport bars did wonders on my GS.Worth picking them up and this section died a long time ago. See if you can work your magic and bring it back to life if that's possible.

I watched my momma cry. I heard her pray the night Chicago died...


Sorry Mike and Matt, I had to.
