Default Bens IS250 Build

I'm a newbie and this is my first post and I'll start with a build thread. I got my 2011 IS250 AWD at the beginning of September 2013. I was very lucky and bought it with only 5811 miles. Here she is when I bought it:















This is a 100% stock base for my build. I'll post the progress as it comes.

I believe the AWD version is higher than the RWD

Just installed my F Sport exhaust a little while ago







This exhaust is part number PTR04-53091. The old part number is PTR08-53091.

Great choice on the exhaust. F-Sport FTW!

What's next? A drop?

IMO I think you should go for the drop first, only because you already have a good sound coming from the f sport exhaust. But you cant really go wrong with the F sport intake, altho its pretty pricey for just an intake haha

Only because it is an F Sport product (and I am sick of my key getting scratched up) $10 at the dealer
