Still think its clean. Makes me miss mine
ahah that cali stop. not trying to pass these off as legit . i know there reps so il stay with my black center cap.. but yeah bbs lm is the most perfect wheel ever made goes well on any car . and is definitely on on my bucket list

thanks still more to come

I totally agree with you on the altezza lights. I love your current setup. Clean and simple.

Did you have to roll/pull the quarters and front fenders with the 9.5" rears? I really want to run a set of 19x10 rears but I haven't seen anyone do it without cutting the quarters and fender lips.

hell yes i had to pull and roll all around even removed my fender liner for the front .
it was a more aggresive pull in the front then the back . cus i couldnt turn without rubbing the fender or the liner.
the rear was slight pull and roll . then again i have 215/35/19 so it depends what u run on the tire.

but more them likely u need a major roll and pull up front and rear . since u want 19x10

so summers almost here so its time to finally start working on the body and now i decided to do a custom front bumper. the look i want doesnt meet my standards that aftermarket has for the is300
dont get me not saying what it offers is wack ,just isnt what i want .im going more for the vip look

id appreciate everyone if they can give me ideas and honest opinons
thanks


this is my old spray can crappy broken bumper


i was looking to get a new bumper but i found one the same color with out broken tabs and better condition $140




Here is the bumper i want to cut the lower half and and mold it into mine
i liked this bumper because the lower grill is going to look much better with out the honey comb one. and the the bumper appears to look like it has a lip but its just part of the bumper.
$50 oh and can anyone guess what its off of



im still not sure what do about fog lights

no the rear didn't stick out as much. it sits pretty flush with the stretch but it tucks some what tire. more than likely going to get 15mm spacers . yeah if you run 9.5 in the front it will stick out a lot since the body narrows up front a little. I rolled in and pulled but I need more pull up front to turn better and pull in the rear if I want the spacer.
no its off a Mitsubishi mirage im getting it painted already as of today . Im going with led DRL fogs but if I don't like them im going to remove them

The custom bumper suits the car very nicely IMO, you can't tell that it was originally designed by two completely different companies!
