Yea, this includes the whole front bumper. He was saying that the JP trunk spoiler has fitment issues, but I assured him that JP is a direct fit. I think he may have installed a couple JP replicas for other Lexus' and may have been confused. Iunno

that's negative. i know of a member with ORIGINAL jp spoiler and it had fitment issues. fact is, even from jp, spoiler might be a bit different from each other. some might fit better than others. so i think you can bring everything to the body shop and they check it out to see how much work is needed

Ya man good idea. I'ma just bring it into the shop. Its hard to quote prices of labor over the phone. I didnt know the JP wing had fitment issues. Thats a first. I guess thats the price you pay for custom pieces.

yes, i guess the problem is the alignment on the 3 pieces. two on the quarter panels and one on the trunk. slight trunk misalignment from cars to cars and the mold, etc... can make all the difference. that's where the custom fitment comes in

The GS is in the shop now. Should be getting it back this coming thursday.

Big Big Shout Out to Tommy (Lexus GS3). He not only got me a killer deal ($450 for EVERYTHING installed excluding front bumper repainted) and even met me up to make sure everything was executed fine.

Yea, I honestly wasnt really feelin Joe when he was talking to me on the phone. I trust Tommy, and we all know how his car turned out. I went to the shop, and they knew exactly wat to do. Great attention and customer service. I'll post pic when I get it back. (Of course aftera fresh wash and detail. )

Yea, Bruce told me that you had to meet up a couple people. Again, I really appreciate you going way out of your way in helping me with my car. He knocked another $50 bux off the price per your recommendation! $400.00 for EVERYTHING. Again, I can't thank you enough. I'm not the type to forget favors from people.

To the rest of my SoCal fam, pix will be up one she's properly washed and prepped. I dont wanna post dirty pix of my new mods, thats just wrong. I think I'll wait until this monday (MLK) to get the pix up since I want to let the double sided tape and glue to fully bond with the car. I would highly recommend this shop for efficient work and great customer service. I dropped my car off on last sat, they started work on monday, and they waited after work hours (mad traffic on the 10E) so I could pick it up yesterday. This shop is a great bang for bux IMHO. Always good to shop around and price check.

Car's lookin tigght though

Man I love my 2GS!!!!
