What is that and where do you get it?

Does anyone know a good source for a bra for a 2008 IS 250? I don't want to beat up the front too much when going on long drives through the desert! Thanks!

That looks pretty good!

The dealer I got my car from didn't even drill holes in the car. They just took a screw gun and forced the screws through the plastic.

Can people please post pictures of their 2007 or 2008 IS with the windows tinted? I want to see what it looks like, I am considering getting this done on my new IS. If anyone has a IS that is Tungsten Pearl I would especially like to see it. What do you guys think about after-market tint on Lexus'?

The GM was nice enough but the sales manager was a jerk. And I am not going to just blanket the whole review with bad thoughts, I will tell them what I thought they did well and what I thought they did not do well. Isn't that the point of a review? To be honest and help the dealership improve? Even though it is the law in California to have front plates, most people, especially in Orange County, who drive nice cars do not install them. The only time you get a ticket for that is if you get pulled over for something else and the cop wants to be a !Removed!, it is like tinted windows, you really are not going to get a ticket for that unless you do something really stupid.

front plates are required by state law, however it is not necessary for the dealer to install them. As for the continued fight, I am not sure if I have the time or energy to deal with that. If I give a bad review they will not only not get paid the incentive from the manufacture, they will also get a lashing from them for their poor customer service. I am okay with no one going to hawaii on the sale of my car.

I have a similar problem on my 08 IS

Well, I finally talked to the GM at the stealership and they won't budge. I guess I will have to give them a bad review...to bad, no manufacture incentive for them I guess. I am going to end up getting plugs from BumperPlugs.com. I had to email them though because they did not have my "Tungsten Pearl" color listed on the site. If anyone knows what the equivalent is and could list it that would be great!

08' IS 250 RWD 22 - 26 City 26 - 31 hwy

I bought the car at Lexus of Cerritos, which as of now, I will not recommend. If they can't take care of a stupid problem like this imagine what would happen if something else had gone wrong!

I need the advice of the form... I just bought a 2008 Lexus IS 250 Fully Loaded this past weekend. Everything was great! I got a good deal on the car the car looked good, has the options I wanted and everything. Here is the problem. After I took delivery of the car drove it home and parked, looked at the front of the car and saw an aweful front license plate, with dealer logo. So I got my screwdriver out and took off the plate and found they had screwed the mounting bracket directly into the bumper, so I called the sales person and told him I wanted a new bumper. He said by law they had to put the mounting bracket on the car, after he said that I went to the California DMV Website and found this: http://www.dmv.ca.gov/pubs/vctop/d05/vc11713_17.htm which basically says they don't have to mount it for you, only provide you with the bracket. None of the cars on the lot were equipped with this, they put it on when they took it back to wash it. What should I do?

Get your dealer to fit the Lexus integration unit. It provides a full interface in the glovebox that switches/charges/plays and use of the steering wheel audio control. No interference either which you get if you charge using the power socket at the same time using the auxiliary jack in the central storage unit. Any info available on pricing of the Lexus dealer installed option? I understand there is a Service Bulletin that is supposed to fix the buzz through the speakers when the charger is plugged in and the ipod is on. My dealer said it could not be fixed but then I found out about the Service Bulletin. Has anyone gotten that fixed? I have an '08 250. Thanks Where did you find the service bulletin? (link)

I also plug my iPod into the 3.5mm jack in the armrest but am disappointed to find that the iPod charger I have does not allow the armrest to close, so I can't charge my iPod and have the armrest closed at the same time. Does anyone know where to get a iPod charger that will allow the armrest to close?
