Appreciate it! I didn’t video tape it, but used some videos on CZcams. Basically, you clean the emblem, get a spray bottle with water, saturate the emblem. Once wet, lay the vinyl piece starting from the inside, working your way slowly to the outside. Take an exacto knife and trim the edges. The emblem still sticking til this day without any need to redo.

It was a great idea to tint it, gives it a nice cool stealth look and less factory. Im wondering how you trimmed the edges lol. Did you cut right where it curved or did you bring the vinyl over the edge and cut it from almost the back of the emblem if you know what I mean. Just want to make sure the best way to cut for longevity and minimize peeling of some sort.

I just cut on the edge when it starts to curve. I forgot to mention, use a hair drier/heat gun on low as well. Helps to mold the vinyl. You will see once you do it, the best place to cut.

Okay, thanks alot brotha!

@prodigy6174 good luck man. Hit me on IG if you need anything.

I don’t think it will fit the RC 350, it’s a different bumper unless you did a rear bumper conversion. I do not have the bolt sizes, but any stainless steel bolt that fits inside of the 7 mm pilot holes should suffice.

@@BWItoATXF thank you man and there’s a couple RC 350 on IG that have installed this with the stock bumper haha

@I-lRyze nice. You got an IG link? I’m curious about it.

I just bought a GSF would you recommend swift springs or the coilovers. And do the coilovers ride as smooth as the factory

Highly recommend always doing coils when possible. They’re engineered to work together. Changing stroke length of OEM struts using a spring will typically lead to more premature failure. Once that happens, you’ll get coils anyway. Or have to rebuild with labor the OEM setup for failure again. Buy once, cry once. They are stiffer than OEM and more performance oriented.

I used a stubby! If you need a better angle, you can pop off the panel where the rear vents are and unbolt the screws for the lid assembly.

Thanks for the support man. Much appreciated! ✊🏽

Thanks man! All good. Unfortunate, but happy to be back. Congrats on your purchase. Great buy.

Tires have been the most expensive maintenance item on this car since ownership smh. Just comes with territory

Check the video description. I didn’t have those codes.

I really like them. Still minimal dust like shown on the video. Due to the increased bite, it doesn’t require as much pressure on the brake to have the same stopping power, which I love. Braking is butter, and has a LOT of stopping power. I never had to lockup/engage ABS during normal driving. I highly recommend them.

@@BWItoATXF Tx, will consider it on the next pad change.

Thanks bro! I try to get something in whenever I find time. This particular install was random. I was tired of looking at it uninstalled with the possibility of getting broken/stepped on. The next day after that thought, I installed lol.

Mannnnnnn facts! 😆🤣 List finally getting low.

Thanks! A few US options: Mod In Japan PMD-VIP Meraki Autoworks There are other international suppliers as well that may be cheaper but have a longer wait time.

@@BWItoATXF Thank you sir!

Thanks Rolla! ✊🏽🙏🏽

Hit a pothole earlier in the year. Their insurance had to cash me out. Hopefully the state took care of it. But Tort laws are annoying.

@@BWItoATXF Caltrans denied my claim. It was ~$500 for a new tire and to reshape the wheel. CA is good for nothing.

@V8Brah not too bad man. That would be about deductible and happy it was just that. As you can see, I just claim all these tires as disposable lol. I’m 0 for 2 with MDOT And TxDOT. Those tort laws are trash.

sorry to hear you and car went through that..but glad to hear your IS500 is good and back on the road….looking back do you think the slimmer tire profile may have contributed as a factor to the tire going out?

@@tubedude92 absolutely. low profile tires are a nightmare for potholes

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 thanks bro ✊🏽

@@BWItoATXF 🙌🏿

Appreciate it! I’m lowered so very seldom issues with scraping since I also have air cups in the front. But I rarely need to use them to clear the lip. Get some bumper guards for the lip. The under scraping cannot be seen overtop regardless though.

I believe JPM Carbon. But the seller in the description can confirm.

Small world, what’s up man? I swear, these Maryland roads always got some shit in them. 💀 I try to buy from tire rack for this exact reason so I have that 2 year road hazard warranty at a minimum. DWS06 are all I ever run for all season. Never rode the others, I hear good things. But as far as performance, tread life, 0 road noise, and price? It’s a no brainer for myself and a LOT of others.

And thanks for the compliment! ✊🏽 This is my second white car. Second time I’ve had the orange plates. I would (for obvious reasons) do it. My guy Derrick at APAC can take care of your calipers if you need as well. Tell him I sent you.

@@BWItoATXFGood to know that you enjoy DWS. I got my set from costco when they had a promotion on michelin tires. The price ended up not that much different from DWS from tire rack. I definitely want to try DWS next time and see how they compare.

@@BWItoATXFThis is my first white car! and I currently have a blue chesapeake plate. I really like the design 🦀

Thanks bro! Just gotta count the wins tallies lately 🤣 Easy fix is definitely a win.

@@BWItoATXF I know it's feels great to get the ride back, so enjoy! B 😎

Hell yeah. Drives better than I remember. Drove a pathfinder rental for a bit and man….that was a POS.

I just got to take the good luck with the bad nowadays lol. ✊🏽

Yes, that’s to be expected. You’re going to need to come behind it with a degreaser/apc. Final cleaning should be with isopropyl alcohol.

Appreciate it! The Invidia is probably one of the most tame and balanced catbacks for the platform. There is 0 drone, which is very important to me. Some other exhausts for the platform may give 0 drone, but cannot confirm. This is the only Invidia offering. Stainless steel tips or titanium tips.

Does it improve the sound at low revs when crusing

You can definitely hear the improvement even when cruising externally or with the windows down. But there is no interior drone or annoyance with it. It really comes alive when you get it throttle. Very tame when you do not.

Good call. I actually made that exact change after initial installation. I should def put that in the description. ALL trimming in the F are very forgivable. 100% recommend doing it.

Any Lexus dealership should be able to provide. Bell Lexus is my favorite online resource for Lexus parts.

Yessir, had to get em!

Nope, different bumper shape.

A little muscle spasm, but okay now. Appreciate it fam.

0 drone

Stock tire sizes, 20 front, 15 rear. I have a CZcams video from a few years ago regarding the spacers. Videos for the front lip (AG style) and side splitters (Lexon)

What’s up bro! Definitely has been a while. Elvin is unmatched imo.

Sorry, they have been sold.

Solid, no complaints.

If the one in the description doesn’t work, reach out them on IG referencing this video.

Use the technique I used. Leverage consumer affairs. Lexus of Austin denied me before doing that as well.

@@BWItoATXF I should have tried that. Ended up delaminating it and getting a body shop to reclear it

@TheJMedia definitely a good alternative. It’s very easy to remove once the bond is gone.

Thank you, happy it helped!

Hi, the item number is on the bag. You should be able to order from any Toyota/Lexus dealer.

No headers. Still on stock manifolds. I was going to redline, so not too sure. Probably 5-7.2k.

I have no complaints about it. Fit is good, diameter is all the way through. Definitely one of the best bang for your buck catback systems for the platform.

Thanks, bro!

Thanks bro! 😎

No lights on the mirror for the RC F. The entry/puddle lights are on the door handle. These mirrors are shared on a few models. Some might have the light there.

@@BWItoATXF is there anyway i could put one in?

@jamiele296 not sure, check out the forums.

Got it from Bell Lexus. Any dealer should be able to get them for you.

@@BWItoATXF much love bro

It’s Elvin Wong’s! instagram.com/elvin_6188?igsh=MXFsdTU5eDA4Nnhmbg==

Appreciate that bro ✊🏽

✊🏽

Thank you, appreciate that! Be sure to check out my other detail videos.

I would. That means that one side threaded before the other. However, if there’s enough thread engagement on each side, should be a bit benign. I would fix it though.

@@BWItoATXF I was kinda hoping you wouldn’t say that, and I was kinda hoping you would. I just spent a few hours correcting it. That bar was a pain in the ass. I don’t ever want to do something like that again lol. I need to take the time to let you know I enjoy your videos. You have a fine car. Subscribed.

@Brandon-jy2yl yeah the bar install wasn’t the funnest install. But once installed, you’re all set. Thanks for the kind words, happy you’re enjoying the content! Thanks for the sub as well, more to come!
