Have it installed for like a week now and no vibration issues at all. We used the Tanabe NF 210, took a quick pic since it's the first sun we had in a month

Looks great. tell your sis she has to log on and join the club

. 19's do the trick with the NF's!!!!

sidenote: just got off the phone with Nat at Tanabe...was stressing to him that an AWD spring from Tanabe is important. (Nat was a cool dude to talk with on the phone.)

forgot to notice that "F" ride in the backgorund:-)

Hey Chris, I have to get you some D2 decals bro! How crazy would it have been if the car said D2AUTOSPORT.com on the side!

CL is al over the world baby. Tastefully modded Lexus vehicles are taking OVER! Lol

As son as I saw Juneau Alaska in the title of this thread, I was like "oh that's Chris' car"

Thanks for supporting us man.

When are we going to be doing some wheels for your "F" bro?

Crilla,

Thanks for the fresh pics... congrats on the sunshine... I'll check out that setup, not ready to pull the trigger now, but probably next spring. Love the color... wish I could've convinced my wife on it.
