Whats up everyone. I purchased a 2017 IS300 F Sport with 19,000 miles not too long ago and I plan on doing a few mods. With every mod I do, I plan on posting pictures. Any advice is appreciated. My plans for the car are:
RSR down springs (DONE)
20" wheels (DONE)
Permanent Tire Lettering
Paint calipers red with decals (DONE)
Red Taillight tint (DONE)
Front lip - side skirts - rear valance/ splitter - rear bumper lip
CF High duck bill rear spoiler (DONE)
Rear carbon fiber window spoiler (DONE)
Paint correction with ceramic pro (DONE)
Clear bra - hood (DONE)
Carbon fiber interior (80+ pieces) (DONE)
Android interface
12" subwoofer with amp
OBX Headers and Mid Pipe
Rev 9 Axle back exhaust
Cold air intake (DONE)
RR Racing tune
Cross drilled rotors
Interior LED lights
Beat Sonic Video in motion (DONE)
Right now the vehicle is completely stock and nearly mint condition except for very light swirl marks most likely from an automated car wash. I plan on having this build complete within 7 months. Ill be doing all the work myself. I have 15+ years in the automotive industry including working as a technician at a few toyota dealerships.
I want the vehicle modified but still reflect that a grown man owns the car and not some teenager. This vehicle is not going to look like one of those pathetic half *** jobs that you usually see posted. Im taking my time and putting my all into it. Im not looking to drastically change how the car rides or performs, just a little customizing.
All stock. Within the next week I plan Remin Carbon Fiber interior, Paint Correction, Clear bra, Ceramic Coating, Carbon Fiber Duck bill high-kick wing, and Caliper Decals
Ill keep posting pics as soon as I complete other projects/ mods.
High-kick duck bill spoiler carbon fiber Just need to tighten down the bolts Paint correction in progress Removed old stock spoiler
Almost finished with the paint correction and just installed the duck-bill spoiler. Waiting for the clear bra to arrive and after that cures, ceramic coating is next.

in this pic, it looks like you painted over the CF one or did you install a different non-CF duck bill spoiler?
ditch those Neon Green valve stem caps. i picked these up recently and i think they would look even better on yours:
The valve stem caps aren't a concern of mine since I plan on changing the wheels anyway. The valve stem caps you showed sometimes get corroded and are a pain to get off. Ive had similar before. The green caps also let the techs who do an oil change know that there is nitrogen in the tires so they don't fill it with regular air.
