  1. I have a set of sport pedals available for sale for AT IS250's

    I originally wanted $400, but now only asking $320, which is my cost price. Looking for a quick sale

    Its the JDM version, not the american version. So it would fit the Aussie IS250's no problems!

    And also.....the USDM footrest is different to the JDM footrest (It has a narrower top section). Therefore, not sure if the footrest from Sewell will fit the aussie IS250's

    I've also included a photo comparison between the JDM and USDM Sport Pedals

  2. News has it that you can buy individual parts of the kit, the charge then woul be the cost of that part + the sharing of the one off shipping costs?

    And yes, please post a date if it's not already finalised Gerald28.

    Current members in the Groupbuy and I have decided we will NOT BE taking on additional orders.

    This is due to the increased possibilty of custom duties, and making the group buy more complicated.

  3. Hmm they look pretty good.

    Did you have to bake your headlights?

    If so, how hot and how long?

    I don't think I could do it :P

    At that kind of temperature, what kind of light throw do you get?

    Installing a HID kit in the Prestige does NOT require a lot of work.

    It does not require to remove or modify the headlight assembly in anyway.

    Most auto electricians can do the job in less than 30mins.

  4. Hi,

    I'm interested also :)

    But would it be ok if I just ordered the Rear Ground Effects kit? I don't mind in pitching in for the shipping cost along with the rest of you, but I kinda just would like to have the Read Grounds effects installed.

    Let me know if this is fine.

    There shouldnt be a problem with that. I think i will soon be finalising the group buy, since there are 4 members interested in this group buy already.

  5. Hi,

    Where did you guys buy the illuminated sill plates from and how much were they.

    For those of you interested in the body kit from sewell`s there are some good photo`s on fitting and the finished job on the clublexus web site.

    I would highly recommend sewell lexus for all your accessories. They have all OEM IS parts at a reasonable price.

    The illuminated scuff plates come in 2 colours. The 2005-2007 scuff plate comes with a blue illumination, which costs US$206 + Shipping

    The 2008+ scuff plates comes with a white illumination, and costs US$219 + Shipping

    http://www.sewellpartsonline.com/parts_detail.asp?id=90176

    Personally, i think the 2008+ white illumination suits the car better.

  6. Its certainly acceptable to negotiate the price with the dealer. Even though there are only a few hundred of them in Australia, you can definately get some sort of price reduction on the car.

    Plus, they would definately like to sell as much as they could at this time of the year, since the financial year is coming to an end very soon.

    FYI, i managed to get a $5000 discount on my IS250. I got mine in mid 2006, and at time, there was a 3month wait.

    BTW, where are you located??

  7. Geez...how did a topic which started out about bodykits ended up with door sills??!! Hah! Well Gerald, if you can find more people to get the bodykits, you can certainly count me in!

    Thanks for a on topic reply mate!!

    I mean, even with just two sets purchased, it works out to be under US$980 delivered. And with the high AU$, it will just work out to be just over AU$1000.

    At that price, i'm already smiling :lol:

    Hahaha... No worries mate! i recently bought a new IS 250 and i wanted to get the bodykits installed but the salesguy advised me not to get it cos if i did, the additional cost for the bodykit would have been subjected to LCT!!! So yeah... As i've already spent a bomb on the car, i would prefer to bring down the cost of the bodykit as much as possible. $1200AUD is an ideal figure incl shipping.

    By the way, in the event if we go ahead with the group purchase, do u have any idea how much it will cost me to get the bodykits installed on my car?

    I would take my bodykit to my local smash repairers. Since the kit is already painted, and ready to fit. I would say its a 3hour job. The front and sides are really simple, however the rear is more involved.

    From memory, my smash repairer charges $60-$70 an hour. I will call them tomorrow to make sure.

    The ideal place for installation would probably be a lexus dealership, but their hourly labour rates are close to $100. And i dont think they can get the job done in three hours. Coz they installed my boot spoiler, and it nearly took them 2hours.

  8. How do you guys do the maths?

    917.76 + 513.23 = 1430.99

    not "just over $1000".

    How about the INGS+1 kit? same price-ish but more aggressive??

    Mate, please read my first post. I said the shipping cost will be 917.76, regardless of the quantity purchased. So if one was purchased it will cost 917.76. If SIX was purchased, it will cost 917.76.

    If two sets was purchased, it works out to be 917.76 + (2 x 513.23) = 1944.22. $1944.22 between 2 people = US$972.11

    If three sets was purchased, it works out to be 917.76 + (3 x 513.23) = 2457.45. $2457.45 between 3 people = US$819.15

    Hope this clears things up!

  10. Hey guys

    Theres a really good deal for the OEM IS250 bodykit from one of the USA lexus dealers (Sewell Lexus)

    The full bodykit consists of three pieces, the front underspoiler, sideskirts and rear underspoiler

    The original price for the kit is $1128, and now they are doing a promotion and they have lowered the price to $513.23, which is greater than a 50% discount.

    The downside is the shipping cost. It will cost $917.76 to Sydney, regardless of the quantity ordered.

    So if a few members are interested in this deal and would like to share the shipping costs, this deal represents a substantial saving to those wishing to purchase a bodykit for the IS250.

    Anyone interested in this group buy??

    I'm in

    Reply if interested!
