Default Little things make you feel more complete..

.. in owning a Lexus IS-F.

This is what I got today. A pair of gloves by Alpinestars... Nothing special, isn't it?


But wait.. There is something about a Lexus on its tag..


It's a JDM limited-edition. Japanese people seems deeply fond of limited edition stuff!


I already feel like I've chopped a couple of seconds off my lap time simply by wearing it. It is a little thing that make me feel more complete in owning an IS-F.


BTW, in the backdrop of the picture is a Renault Clio Sport V6.. A mid-engined hot hatch that my brother plays with.

Well, I found it for sale on Yahoo Japan Auction. I am sure you will come across one if you stay vigilant. One caveat is that you should know some Japanese..

Here's my IS-F swag...


This jacket is great. It's lightweight, vented, and well made.

Subtle is good.

...as long as it does not resemble the "Dodge Viper" douche swag!

Haha, there's nothing on the back. The only IS-F insignia or logo is what you see in the pic. Other than that, it looks like a regular jacket.

They are in almost all the dealership display windows here. The gym bags are prominently displayed too. Seems to be lots left over as they don't make some of this stuff anymore.
