What's with the WY2SLOW tag?......... You waiting for an IS430?

Interesting how you got the front tag recessed under the bumper. Is that legal in CA?......I've never seen that before, but it certainly makes the car look cleaner.

wy2slow- if you can read it your two slow. and waiting to get turbo.

i removed the crash bar and mounted the tag to the radiator supports. i asked a chp and he said that it was legal. so i am going on that.

i had to notch the rear skirt underneath about 1/4". and the tip now extends about 2inches past the bumper.
