Default No front plates for IL! (well, hopefully!)
Hey guys,

It looks like they're trying to pass a new law for no front plates! First the new tint laws, now this!

If you think about it...they were retards for having two front plates for so long anyway. Cut your material cost in half, while charging the same price.

It was proposed in like mid 80's to kick down to single plates.

We lounge on his massive deck and pool...he paints the cars. Me thinks this will not go over well.

Off topic...

I just want to point out about this guy right here. George sold his car eons ago...been logging miles on a Vdub since. But still posting, still throwing up our "official" non official Chicagoland window tint guy to noobs. Still whipping out the CL pole regularly!

Atili Rocks!

Thanks for the props Matt! I feel like I'll be back in a Lexus again someday. I drove my dad's '92 LS the other day (with 275k miles) and it still amazes me how smooth and refined that thing is.

I hope this passes as well. I got away with no front plate on my 1gen and 2gen IS's for many years.

Hey guys the easiest fix for them nasty holes on the front bumpers is to patch it up with a chewing gum . Now gum comes in different tastes and colors , chew it first patch it later.

p.s. Did any of you fellas pre order Lexus lfa yet. from what I hear they are going fast. My Lexus dealer refused to take my house as a trade in so I'm ******t out of luck.

Not car friendly at all. It's strictly just to cut costs.

I'm sure they'll make up for it with some more stupid red light cameras.
