PLZ17

For the record, PLZ17, what year is your 250 and how many km's has it travelled? Hey mate, car is 07 model has done 38,000 km

Nothing else pisses me more off than rattles...i hate ratthles!!!! Especially when its a near new or new car ie. Lexus IS250

I have had mine for over a year now and it hasn't missed a beat...."ilv1004s' is rite...not the most enjoyable manual but there is not issues with it mechanically...

fatjoez - i like your idea.. I was thinking of doing the same thing in the future... Personally, and this is only my opinion/preference I would rather supercharge an IS250 then get an IS350 especially if you got the IS250 for a good price which you have...also very unique! I wouldn’t worry about getting the engineer cert. 90% of import cars out there are not, and who would really suspect anything in IS250 unless you are being a fool which in that case you can be driving and excel and you will get pulled over...same thing with the BOV. In my previous car (Nissan 200sx) I had a lot of work done and including a loud BOV and never got pulled over for BOV, other stuff YES..lol Also the harder you push you are the louder the BOV will be so if you are cruising along next to the boys in blue i really doubt it they would pick up on it... You can go all out and upgrade the brakes, suspension, tyres, wheels, gearbox, exhaust system…etc etc But in reality in my opinion all you really need is a 3inch straight through exhaust system and an ECU which you get if I remember reading the Stage 2 package. Sooo to me a GREAT idea…hope all goes well for you mate…keep us updated!!!! P.S. Would love blitzin’ an IS350 of the line…they always think they are soo much better and faster standing next to you on a set of lights!!! LOL ;)

No way! thats a shame! Love my MT!

Forgot to included... Access is $450 per claim

If you are in Brisbane and looking for a proper job done don't make the same mistake and go with Solar Tint like i did....

Hi All, Just an update on my progress. After months of chasing these guys to rectify my problem they have finally payed me out :). Going to Lexus now to have the damage repaired and have the car re-tinted by Lexus... Just goes to show that u have to keep at it if u want results...thanks all for ur support..

Yeah i heared from my dealer the same thing...thats a shame...i love my MT...

yeah, let us know and post a few pics if you can...keen to see what it looks like and how it fits...

good advice :) thank you... i am usually the one loosing my cool but with them i did exactly what you were saying, i have been noting down all the phone calls i made including who i spoke to and their name. I sent them a very detailed email explaining to them exactly what happened. In the email i even complimented on their service all up until the work was done and i even said that i still wish to pay the guy for his work but i just wanted the damage fixed and the tint striped off, I wanted them to know that i am a reasonable guy...and not someone looking to score a free tint job. Personally i believe ppl in general don't complain enough, they either can't be bothered going through the process or they get put off by some BS business's usually come up whit. But they should if they are not happy, cause lets face it we all work hard for our money and nobody tells us you can have an extra couple of hundred bucks for doing a *HIT job.

Hi All, Just wanted to let you all know that Lexus of Brisbane Indooroopilly have fixed my problem no questions asked 10/10. Very Happy Thank you all for you comments.

Just so you all know...i had my car tinted recently by SolarTint Brisbane and had an absolutely disastrous experience. So i though i should share this so other ppl dont do the same mistake as i did.... When i rang the company i advised the guy multiple times that i am very pedantic about work being done on the car. I warned him many times that i would like the job done properly and didn't want any damage done to the car. I told the guy what i car have and if he was up for the job. He happily said 'YES' as he has done a few Lexus's before. I checked their website and investigated a bit and found them to be professional so i decided to go ahead, had i only known what i was getting my self into. 1. Tint Job was absolutely poor, it was done at night under a car port. 21 days later bubbles still visible on most windows, a dirt particle stuck between the tint and the window on one door, basically there is something wrong on every window. (Don't know why he did it at night) 2. In the process he managed to break the L/H rear door trim clips and chip in multiple places the R/H front door plastic frame that surrounds the window. When i mentioned this to the guy and pointed out where the tint wasn't done properly and asked if he would come back the next day during the day so that we can properly inspect the job he said "NO". Anyway to cut the story short, i told the guy that i would only give him a $100 deposit and the rest once it has been fixed up...he then went absolutely ballistic and took off... Emailed Head Office in Sydney but haven't had a reply yet. (Very Very Disappointed) Will be taking the guy and SolarTint to the Small Claims Tribunal so he can pay for the damage he done. Hopefully it will finish on a positive... What a Bummer!

yeah something i have notice as well, the door trims will get dirty quickly...i get kinda light white'ish fingerprint marks...dunno why...always wondered why just been using regular interior cleaner and it works fine for me. Only thing is it doesn't last that way for long before fingerprint marks appear again (not the same ones)..
