Auto Zone Gift Card
Ok, so someone gave me a $50 gift Card to Auto Zone for Christmas. I have no idea what to buy for my IS350. I've read not to get the K&N air filter so I won't. I can't think of anything but cleaning supplies to buy. Anyone have any suggestions? Going to be buying from Sewell the front and rear GFX...any special tools I may need that I can find at AZ???
jack stands or a floor jack are good. They also have an amazing german product to wetsand and take out scratches--it works but not for the faint hearted or those who wnat to sand past the bare metal....

Wow, all great suggestions....it's turning out that the $50 will be short. hahaha, but I think I 'll try to fit either Jack Stands or a floor jack, Claybars, and caliper paint...do they sell Lexol leather cleaner at an Auto Zone?
i dunno if they sell them but.. rhino ramps! you can't go wrong with a couple of bottle of invisible glass and window cleaning towels.. bottles of meguiar's leather conditioner..... seafoam!
Royal Purple is a nasty oil....I use to run that stuff in my boosted Integra and it was the heat!! Then I ran it in my drag bike and blew like 3 clutches cause the oil is so thin lol....but royal purple is def worth the money for the few horsepower its suppose to give you.
Jack stands should be okay to buy at that price, but a floor jack I would stay away from.
You can't get a decent one at that price. Trust me, I got one from Walmart like an idiot, now it's just collecting dust in my garage. The jacking handle is super short and doesn't provide any leverage. Plus the jack itself is very narrow and tall, making it impossible to fit under most sedans and it doesn't lift up the weight that it's rated at and it can't lift higher than a foot(if that).
I shopped around and bought a heavy duty jack instead, which has been nothing but brilliant to me. It's called an Arcan XL35(7000 pounds), low profile but fairly heavy(100lbs). The weight is a non issue though, it actually gives you more confidence when lifting SUVs and such, and it's very easy to move around.
Here is the difference that I'm talking about.
