My AWD is250
Hi all. After 5 years of driving around in a two door Toyota Celica, I decided to buy my friend's mom Lexus IS250. Its AWD, black exterior, tan interior, automatic, with 17" stock wheels. This car has been an absolute dream.
1. JL audio 10w7 ported box. JL Slash 500.1 amp
2. Yakima Rack with big powderhorn
3. Powder stock rims black
4. F-sport type grill install (it had an E&G classic grill se)
It snowed the first night I got my car. The ultimate test drive.
[I]10W7 in a custom ported box. JL grills installed. JL 500.1 behind it.
Before powdercoat

looks good! Welcome to CL.
I'm not a huge fan of the grilles but they're definitely a unique look! I don't think I've ever seen those before.
Have you considered lowering at all? I also have an awd.... and the wheel gap was driving me insane!
If you need help on deciding how/ what to lower with, this forum is a goldmine for ideas and options!

Thanks. Like the original post said, I got rid of that top grill and installed an f-sport one

Yeah man get rid of the bottom one too! you can just get a standard is250/is350 one. It'll go great with your sport one.
It depends when lowering.... coilovers are the best long term solution. highly recommend megan ez coilovers. they are a STEAL price wise, and offer all the essential amenities for lowering, convenience, and choices. In the long run, they will pay off.
I personally invested a bit more and got BC racing coilovers. Different name, but essentially the same parent company.

Good luck, let me know if you have any questions!
