My IS is also missing the stickers and I have been talking to my dealer for months but they don't seem to understand what they are. Finally when they got it, they say that the stickers are not available any more since the car is out of production or some nonsense like that. Could you please give me the your contact name and phone number at your dealer so I can get this figured out and have my dealer contact yours? I appreciate the help and any suggestions from other folks who encountered the same situation. |

Most of us don't have all the badges though. I only have the white Attention one saying PPK installed, change the spark plugs. I've really debated getting the full on black badge, but my dealer seemed uninterested in even entertaining the idea and not sure I want to spend $28 of my own money for a sticker. Came REALLY close though a few weeks ago. I think if you get them yourself you can also then dictate where they go as some people have them in much better places than others or nicely lined up with other stickers under the hood. I initially wanted the additional stickers/black badge because I was completely paranoid a service department might inadvertently erase my PPK software. My service advisor said there's literally no chance of that happening and it's in all their systems that I have it, so the badge to warn a potential tech is serious overkill. I kinda believe him, but still wish I had the black badge that I'm sure I'd accidentally put on crooked then. |

It would be awesome if one if the vendors would do a group buy. Cough cough, wink wink, hint hint. I think there would be enough of us who want to "complete" our is.

Huh. That's really too bad. My SA was here in Denver was 100% helpful and I couldn't have been more pleased w/ the experience (except for the outrageous price of the PPK badge).
In hindsight, I should have done more research because I could have saved some ca$h by buying them online. But alas, I didn't have the part numbers at the time. IMO, I would avoid the dealer and get 'em for half-price online as greg suggested. Let us know what you end up doing.

Question, are these badges the official ones for the 135is? I thought the black one was what came equipped on ppk purchases with the newer F-series cars

These are the official ones that came with (some) IS's. The one that says M Performance Power Kit would be for the newer PPKs on the f-series cars as they now call it the M Performance Power Kit and includes a different engine cover as well.

Ya, we should wait and get a bunch of us to do it at one time and then someone can mail them out for the price of a stamp. Or, if someone is placing a large order and throwing in a few badges doesn't add to the S&H it might make more sense. I almost did it when I ordered the performance rotors as it added $1 for S&H, but I got hung up on do I want to spend $28 for a sticker, so passed for now.

With that said, I already put them on the other day and they look simply amazing with the 313s. I'll be posting pics soon on the IS thread in a few days after the matte gray coating is completely off and I clean the car up a bit this weekend. |

I didn't want to wait 4 years to put 'em on my new car, either. My IS is not my dd, so it will be a lower-mileage car. I agree with greg - the slotted/drilled rotors look awesome with the 313s. These wheels really show off the performance rotors and calipers nicely. IMO, these rotors should have come w/ the car. They look freakin sweet. Can't wait to see pix once your car is all cleaned up!

The white "Attention" sticker was easy to place. On a side note, I ordered 5 sets of OEM stickers from ESC tuning for members who are missing theirs. You can have the OEM PPK sticker or the 6-language "attention" spark plug stickers. Or you can have both. With the shipping discount from ECS, I can sell you both stickers at my cost for $30 total. They have to come from Germany, so it'll be a few weeks before I have them. Send me a PM if you're interested and I'll put you on the list. I only ordered 5 sets, but can order more if needed. So let me know.

[QUOTE=owen2001;15236762]Finally got around to putting my new missing stickers under the hood. The PPK badge is rigid and doesn't fit well in most spots under the hood, so I ended up putting it on the air filter box like Chunner. Thanks for those pics. I think it looks pretty good there.
Can I have the "attention" spark plug sticker. Just one please, in english.

Pff, it doesn't work like that. You gotta take the whole sheet and all the other languages! You don't necessarily have to put them all on your car in various places like mb135is did, but I reckon you gotta take the whole sheet. I may get a tattoo of one of these on me.

Oh, and I'm going to put the Japanese one on my Prius engine somewhere. The guys at Toyota will get a kick out of that.
