That's awesome, I'm excited to see the pics.

Wednesday I talked to the shop that's working on my ES, they said it might be done Friday. A front end piece (they didn't say what specifically) came in a week late and they were prepping it for paint and they still needed to install the coolant system. Once I get it back I'll have to take some pics of mine, I'll have to borrow my sisters Nikon D40 to get some good quality.

ya they did that same thing to me on my bumper..... oh well... it was worth the wait! ya definitely post up some pics!

well congratulations! its always nice (and sorta rare) to hear about someone actually LIKING their repair/paint work!

i know right... and im ridiculously picky too!!! they just did a superb job! i actually couldn't believe how well it matched up!!

Sorry I haven't been around much lately.

Nice job on the car repair! I'm glad this all turned out great! The car actually looks better now then before! That doesn't happen very often. LOL!!!!

The Canon xsi is a great camera! That's the camera I used last time. It belongs to a friend of mine who let me use it, and now I want one for myself!!

flop ya gotta tell me ive been lookin the net far and wide. I recently got some nice lookin cross drilled rotors... on my is 300 03 model. But my calipers look icky. Ya know the flat grey meh. Anyways those lexus calipers did they come stock on the l-tuned models or where you get them. I saw them on someone elses car on the net and i cant seem to find anyone that sells those particular calipers. The red with the white lexus logo is beautiful. I must have :P. I'd appreciate any info man.

Oand the car looks great man. Suprised they did such a nice job on it after nearly totaling the car. I got the millenium silver paint job on my 03 but i acctually was looking for the darker grey color in a 5 speed. Could only find the milenium silver. Fell in love with it tho. My wife thinks i love it more than i love her. Which i do so screw her :P lol im j/k must exit page be4 she reads this.

thanks man! and the calipers you seek are just painted with red caliper paint with a lexus decal followed by a high temp clear coat.... it's pretty easy to do and it looks great! any questions let me know!
