Search harder

CARSON TOYOTA.

Even a simple search would have brought up several 97+ GB's and hundreds of posts and threads. Use the welcome thread up there for search tips and hints. Once you perfect what's in the welcome thread for search tips you'll pull a needle from a haystack every time

Carson is your best bet they still honor the group buy prices. Ask for Gordon when you call. You have to literally be on the CL classifieds 24/7 to find anything for 97 upgrade.

not really. IF you want to find steals on the classifieds, then yes, 24/7 is your best bet. I had some good pricing on some 97 upgrade parts that didn't sell because people are CHEAP. NOT FRUGAL, but cheap.

I'll be posting pics of total destruction of the parts momentarily.

97 wing, fender, cd changer, etc etc.

What's this mean? The parts that "cheap" people didn't buy ended up getting destroyed and you took pics of them?

Yes. Very. I'd take a dollar over some trash any day of the week, but that's just me.

You can get them from anywhere. All you have to do is a little research. There are a couple sources here on Club Lexus. Some times they are put up for sale in the Classifieds section. You can also get them from the dealer and pay much more. You can get them from Toyota/Lexus parts shops. Just take the time to do a little research and you'll see. Good Luck.
