Default Johnny's IS250 F-Sport Build

What's up everybody? My first post on Club Lexus. Me being 20 working a job and being a full time student in college I had to save up for a while to do what I've done.

Follow me on Instagram for more/future pictures @johnnyngo_

My previous car I had before my Lexus was a Acura RSX Type-S.

Great start so far! Mad props for holding down so many jobs while still in college.

What lip is that on the front bumper?

IS350 would EAT the RSX from a dig, but anything after 60-70 might be in question.

Looking good man!
I too am in a similar situation with school, I know how it feels!

Have you experienced any abnormal tire wear? I am planning on buying bc coils in a few weeks here, but I'm also looking into a front and rear camber kit (toe is adjustable on a stock 2is) to help with the drop and prevent early tire wear.

Have you considered looking into this?

Also, what kind of lip is that? looks great!
