In Round Rock, Indy Shop?
Where have you taken your Lexus for service, beside the dealer? I have an electrical problem with the instrument cluster and need a recommendation for my 2002 SC430 as well as my 2006 LS 430.

You have a Lexus SC 430 I see. Got any pics of it?
Here are the independent shops I know of or have dealt with. I hope this helps.
The only Toyota/Lexus place I know of in the Austin area is Bearden Automotive. I have not been there so I don't know much about them.

I have taken my cars to Auto-Spec Round Rock for some things so they might be a good choice for you also...

I have gone to a place called Performance Motorsport for the more serious Supra stuff. He built up Lexus SC Coupe's and Supra's back in the day.

Not running the plate on the IS 500, other cars have front plates. Almost 2 years no issues, been all over/through Texas, no issues... so far. I hear DPS if they pull you over is likely to be the one who would hit you up for the plate. I figure every Tesla doesn't have a front plate, why should I.

Bechtold tagged us in the LC specific section. We had a whopping 3 LCs make it to pistons on the square in Georgetown yesterday. If anyone wants to be added to text message alerts when there are meetups (impromptu or planned) please feel free to PM me to exchange cell #s.
I'm planning on having some Hill Country Toyota & Lexus Club (or something to that effect) business cards made to leave on windshields when we spot especially cool Toyota/Lexus cars around the area.
We are Boerne based but the other two LCs from yesterday are closer to Austin area.
