thanks guys
Correct. I don't care about speed, I've had a ton of fast cars ever since I was 16, and enough speeding tickets. All of that has been long out of my system. If I did care about speed anymore I would look past a 350 and go straight towards a F. I must be getting old. I turn 30 here soon. But I have a 6 year old boy now and other priorities in life. Theres no point in having a really fast car when I don't go racing at the track, roads here are garbage and I'm not gonna be participating in speed racing and endanger anyones lives. the reason why I picked a 250 is bc 1) I needed AWD for the terrible winters here and 2) I could not justify paying 38k+ for a IS350 AWD when I can can get a ISF for the same price if not a little cheaper, only difference would be several thousand miles more and a older year. But yes I could really care less for being fast. I'd rather my car just look good

yes they replaced it at a discounted rate
and actually had it ready within 2 weeks
the only reason they gave me a discounted rate was because our vendor here (getyourwheels.com) contacted them directly and closed them on doing it.
wheels are now for sale in the classifieds

crap, they take the license plate frame?! A couple years ago, a friend of mine's fiance got rear ended and left her iPod and sunglasses in the car, and those got stolen. The other driver was insured, and they were able to get the insurance to pay for them though. She had some small neck and back pain and the insurance pay some money for her to not sue for injury (the other driver's girl friend wasn't that lucky, she had her feet up on the dash and lost most of her front teeth).

Man, when I first heard about this, it was such a sad sight since your car was the first IS I practically admired hahah. Got me into the mod world. Glad to know that you didn't suffer any severe injuries hopefully. Still looking forward to your build! Should also get some Beats sound system in your car hahah jk lol

I think Beats do make car audio. I saw a commercial of the Chrysler 300 displaying Beats Audio with it. And hahah dang. You must be spending a lot then. I wish you had the +11 bumper. Would've been awesome to see a custom lip for that front bumper since there's nothing for it. Really looking forward to seeing your customized lip and build. This is like the 9999x time I said this lol
