Well you know I
red, and I thought we discussed the S2k in my "possibilities" ? 
I've always liked Red and White S2k's (like the other colors too but not for me)

For you guys who registered for the Taste of Lexus thing and are going tomorrow...Enjoy! At the end you get a goody bag but I won't tell you what's in it.
The food is pretty good...just a bunch of fingerfoods...a lot of Coke/Sprite and Fiji Water. Check out the bathrooms too...they're gonna be the nicest port-o-pots you've ever seen.
My impressions: The IS350 should be put against the BMW 5 series...GS300 feels like driving miss daisy and the steering blows. no pics though but I had a blast.

I've driven both the (late model) 300 and 400, an the 400 was much more fun than the 300.

But I guess this applies to majority of car owners (excluding exotics of course). To most it's juts a car that gets them where they need to go, and sure they'll smile if someone compliments them on it, but 5 mins later, it's just a car again. But for us enthusiasts when someone compliments the car, we're ready to open the hood and fire up the grill (we're going to be here for a while)

Well back at work after a night of almost getting Malested(sp) by a WHITE CAT Stayed a night at a friends house that had this cat. The little FAWKER would not leave me alone for shit. Its like he jumped in the bed and purred while rubbing against me. Also kept on trying to attack my foot under the covers If it could talk it would have said "AWWW LOOK AT KITTY, Im pretty AWWWWWW "

Andy you need to post that over in the 3rd gen forum.
Well Drew came over this weekend and we worked on installing the mesh into the lower grills on my car. Here are the pics.
This is right after taking out the lower grills

What is looks like in there when the grill is not in.

The grill piece before we started to modify it.

Drew using the Dremel to cut out parts of the grill piece.

Grill piece with everything cut out.

Grill pieces with the mesh in them

Close-up of one of the pieces

Here is the car with both pieces in. Not a good picture. I will take a better one once the weather improves.

Thanks for your help again Drew. As always comments welcomed, good or bad.

Being all around the forums, I always see new people in the DFW/houston area popping up, but who knows.
