3 out of 4 wheels rebuilt, the 4th face is jammed up in the old wheel lip so I gave up last night. Haha. Off to get some crazy fenders soon.

So what are you going to go with for the fenders? A custom retrofit off a LW or RB kit, or custom widened fenders? I'm just curious to see how wide the fenders will need to be to fit those

Your lucky you don't daily your IS, I would've loved to do more aggressive fenders but there's no way I could've done it with a static daily

Stiffer springs or bags and you can daily aggressive setups all day. I'll probably daily my is250 again after body work is done.

Should be dropping her off late this week to get the widebody kicked off. Pretty excited because I'm tired of looking at her look so ridiculous in my garage like this. Lol

Lol hella poke is right Raj.

Widebody might be delayed getting back to me with other cars at the shop but still can't wait

Randomly found and posted exhaust clip to YouTube so might as well throw it here too:

lol I really like my paint color. Only other color I've ever been drawn to it a reddish orange color but it wouldn't go with a lot of my car so Starfire pearl it will stay. I'm not too worried about the show points either
