  1. RR racing USRS will solve your inner wear issues too!
  2. There was a post only a few weeks ago about this very subject. The consensus was to avoid them. Personally I've had poor experience with Jags. Very nice to drive. Very expensive to run and maintain. Mine was in the shop every verse end with endless error messages. Plus, regardless of your current age, you always look like you borrowed it off your dad!
  3. Yes mate! Cool factor only I for the RCF in this case unless Lexus are getting very techie without our knowledge. I'm gonna try the duck option and see if it works! Quack!!
  4. Copyright "winglets" immediately! In the world of sticking any possible spoiler type thing on your car I believe they are called 'Canards'. Bonus points to anyone who sticks a duck (preferably French) on their front bumper and posts a photo. P.S. Diffusers are for winners! Get one!
  5. Welcome to the F Club Charlie. Looking forward to seeing you at the 10 year meet if not before! She looks ace! Get some more pics up when you get her home. Dan.
  6. i'm in mate!
  7. Wayne, just going to drop you a PM about this
  8. Ouch! Unlucky Wayne. Was That from the fog light covers guy in the states or from the Rusogarage guy? Did it look like it would have fitted? I think they say that if the box looks damaged you should bounce it with the courier to get a refund. Not sure where you'll stand now chief.
  9. Happy Birthday Big Rat! Although I'm still undecided on whether I'll ever be able to talk to you again after this 'non-silver' decision. You've changed! ;-) Hope you've had a great day with the new toy mate.
  10. Congrats on the purchase Big Rat! Not long to wait now. Might want to get your cameara lens cleaned though. That silver RCF almost looks black in the photos
  11. Hahaha! Just think of 'em as "Vintage" mate
  12. Not that i’m about to change mine but I saw a set of these in the flesh today. You can get them in any width you want in half inch increments, any size from 17 up to 22 and any offset you want, special order. They’re actually not that pricey either. Definitely not rushing out to buy them tomorrow but what do you reckon to these on silver ISF?
  13. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Custom-exhaust-back-boxes-off-a-Lexus-IS-f-/253206855254 This is them, they look good on the car. Might be a steal for someone in the market.
  14. Looks like someone is selling a set of aftermarket back boxes on fleabay. By reading the ad looks like they’re not an enthusiast. The boxes look a lot like the RR racing ones. Can’t get the link to copy for some reason but if you search “custom ISF back boxes” they are there.£200 in fleet, Hampshire. Photos of another potentially unknown ISF on the ad for you too Big Rat!
  15. What a shot that is! Niiiiiiiiiiice!
  16. Get it checked If there is any damage to the bumper carrier or support bars this could mean that in the event of a 'real' crash the car does not perform as it should and you'll end up injured. Just had this with my wife's car.
  17. Oooh controversy! I like 'em although I've not driven one. Hate the alloys though. Love the Tan leather though. Stupid pop out door handles. Every one I've seen in the dealers has had one or more stuck popped out. Do like that white one though, just needs some black alloys!
  18. Stay away from the XFR! This was my alternative choice when I got my ISF last year too. They are no more reliable than your STR would be once you start racking the miles up. Be prepared for the 'gearbox fault' limp modes at every verse end and endless misfires that both seem to be totally fine as soon as you get to the dealer and pay 'em £150 for a fruitless diagnostic check. I loved my STR for the ride, styling and power but it cost me the same as the car cost me to own it for two years and it had every conceivable issue. From what the head tech at Solihull Jag told me in good faith, the XFR's are no better. Get an ISF and relax for the rest of your life!
  19. I've been told by two dealers and the warranty dept direct that as my car is 'modified' then they would not warranty it This was when I only had an intake and filter on it although others appear to have warranties with H&S fitted so not sure what the hard and fast rule is. Mr Warranty Dept at Lexus said that even if my brakes failed they'd not warranty them as the car had been 'modified' regardless of the fact that the mods and the failure were totally unrelated.
  20. Spot on, thanks Wayne. I found those for sale from that guy too! Let me know how they look when they arrive. Like you say, the fog light covers are good so fingers crossed. Dan.
  21. Hi Wayne, Did you ever get this stuff? Interested to see how it all fitted. Dan
  22. Hi! Just wondering how these are bedding in? Any issues with sticking or Windows not going up or down?
  23. Read it in another WHSmith without buying it. Must admit it just sounded like the guy had read other reviews and re-written them it could have been a much better and more original write up with not much effort. Pete! PM’ed you a few days back about my missing USRS. Get back to me when you get a chance
  24. The bolts on the t clamps are way too long though! Took mine off again and cut them much shorter
