Maybe we can set up the first Fresno IS meet at the Krispy Kreme at Blackstone/Nees when it opens in two months and entice people to show up with free donuts like some guy on .net did.

Hey Changster:

I was in Auto Enhancement a couple of weeks back and saw a silver IS300 getting a bodykit. Is that your? My friend Robyn just bought a black IS3 and Alan did some tinting on her windows and now she's looking into a rear spoiler.

I have a black GS400 and recently went down to the Carson Lexus meet. There were at least a dozen IS3's, some pretty tricked out. Saw one with a really clean turbo install, said he's putting 300 plus ponies at the rear wheel!

Yes, that's me! I guess you ordered one for your car. Good time to order as they are running a special price of $625.00. I put the HFI/ECU on with the Torque Converter on about six months ago. It's a great addition giving me better power and torque. Plus you'll love the sound. Swift makes some pretty awesome products. Check it out on www.swiftracing.com

My friend saw your spoiler, and wants to get one for her car. They are making a lot of stuff for the IS300. Check out http://store.yahoo.com/lexusparts/index.html for factory Toyota Altezza parts. Hiro, the owner is a pretty good guy. Got my rear lower spoiler from him, along with some Aristo badging.
