Default Toyota Owner and Lexus Tech.

Hey everyone, figured I'd join up on here. I actually own a 2004 Toyota Corolla S and its slightly modified. I also work at Lexus of Naperville as a Technician.

Me and my buddy also founded a car group in the Chicagoland area and expanded into WI and PA, soon to be in FL and CA. We have 7 sponsors and 4 models. We plan on going to most car shows in the Spring/Summer 2007. If anyone is interested, just lemme know.

Everyone should def. check out the website at www.LTStunerz.com

-Evan

If I'd ever need your expertise, do you ever do any work on the side?

Completely off topic, but do you know someone named John Neat that works there? If you do, shout "Get back to work, Neat!" for me

He'll understand.

where do you guys recommend getting parts painted and body work done? I want to add a body kit in the near future and repaint my car.

I just moved up from Texas to IL (near Naperville) and don't have any idea where to start.

I came in for the door not unlocking when they told me to come back they would order the part. when i came back it was the wrong one so they told me to come back again when they couldnt figure it out so they gave me arental and left it for the monday is tech. they called me tuesday saying it was done when they called half hour later saying that itwasnt working right not to come in. They called back 2 hours later saying to pick it up. I got a half mile down the road when the window fell in the door . I went back and waited while they fixed it. I got back in my car to find the door handel trim was broken. So i went back to get that fixed. I live in carol stream. I go in monday for an electical test cause the alternator is going out. I figured i would go in for warranty bafore i finished putting all my stuff on it.
