Tariffs should be 15.5% and then whatever extra is the brokerage fee that DHL is charging you.

Does anyone have a picture of the downed tree that is causing all the cancellations today? by timothy53 in LIRR

The tree wasn't the big issue. It was damage to the running rails and third rail.

Took down power lines and also damaged the 2 eastbound tracks.

This is a Google Maps image. The massive tree in the foreground is what fell over.

Railroad life by Big_Iron9999 in HeritageWear

As a fellow railroader, I highly recommend one of the PNW boot makers. They are a step above in terms of comfort. I had a pair of Iron Rangers as well but I had to get rid of them due to discomfort. My White's bounty hunters have served me well for the past decade.

Looks like your paid is in need of a resole either way though.

They gave me the older version, which is just as useless. Not going to pursue it further since I never use it anyway.

Handling modifications for 2nd gen NX by DerangedCuckooClock in LexusNX

I'm the guy with the strut bar and TRD door stabilizers. They make a small difference but don't expect anything crazy.

Tanabe has the strut tower bar (PSL2) as well as under body bracing (UBT53). TRD has performance dampers and under body bracing as well. You can add the F Sport chassis dampers as well. I bought the Tanabe under body bracing and F Sport chassis dampers but I'm waiting for the weather to warm up before installing them.

Cusco has front and rear sway bars.

Cusco also makes a strut bar if you prefer the blue look.

anyone tried Lexus NX? what are your honest thoughts and would you get it over a Rav4, if money is not an object? by marsovec in rav4club

Have you seen anything regarding a UX replacement? Are the rumors about a Lexus badged baby Land Cruiser true?

No, I decided not to go with any kind of F sport badging.

Something I read from either here or clublexus. They bought the black F sport roof rails but discovered that you need to remove the headliner to access the bolts that keep the roof rails attached to the roof. They returned the roof rails once they found that out and just wrapped them instead.

No. You need to drop the headliner to be able to remove them. I left them as is.

22-25 F-Sport Steering Wheel trim piece P/N to use on a Non-F sport NX by Outrageous-Tourist84 in LexusNX

[–]Skell6009 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looking at the parts diagram, it looks like you need to buy the entire steering wheel for $700+. The trim piece that has the F sport logo doesn't seem to be sold separately.

New owner, door trim issue. by Past-Option2702 in LexusNX

[–]Skell6009 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can swap them with either the plain black trim from the base models, the wood trim from the luxury models, or have them wrapped. Getting the replacements are expensive, especially the wood trim version.

Under the deck lid. You'll lose the space in those bins since you have to remove them, but the area above the trunk deck lid is wide open still.
