Its a non technical term for a plate and screws. They are effectively pinning the bone to a plate with screws. You will be bearing weight on it before you know it. I wasnt so lucky. No surgery for me. They had to cast it.


Is your leg straight? And can you walk fine?

Its a little fucked up... hard to explain. I have a flat spot on my shin at the spot of the break. My tibia healed very strong. It had to be overlapped to heal so its an inch shorter. My fibula was s clean break so it is the original length. This causes my fibula to stick out at the top like it is pulling away from my knee. I have a lot of knee pain during physical activity and during weather changes. Other than that it is stereotypical effects of a large leg length discrepancy. My work boots are built up 3/4" and I wear an insert in the rest of my left shoes. I'll never run unless im forced and I already have hip and low back pain.


But yeah I can walk fine. I limp without my lift and when im tired. Since you had surgery you wont have a noticeable lld. You will be sensitive to weather change though.

in my opinion i would keep the isf clean, tint it and put nice rims on it and call it a day. you have your 370z to mod and play with, have at least one nice car, more of a classier, sophisticated look. having 2 modded cars is stupid. impress the bitches with the 370z, show them you are han from fast and furious, then show them your isf to show them the classier side.

also, put that money into an account soley for moving out of your parents house, its time for you to get your own place..

sounds good thanks :thumbsup:

sometimes i get the itch to mod lol
i was lurking on the lexus/isf forums yesterday and saw a bunch of nice ones and started wanting to mod mine
i think i might just get a clear bra for it since it has nice tint and wheels already

if i can sell the house my dad and i live in right now then we could buy a new one immediately and have some money saved up. we have to fix a lot of things though... damn texas heat/dry weather has messed up the foundation and there's cracks all over the place and we need to carpets, wallpapers, kitchen tiles, shower, etc. etc
