Default My IS250AWD BUILD.

Hey whats up CL, been a member for a while but never really posted a thread about my build because i wasnt planning on messing with this car until last year indecided to just stay with it and enjoy it a while longer. I have done a few mods over the period of time i've own the car. Such as F-Sport front and rear sway bars, Is-350 front brake upgrade, F-Sport shift ****, BC extreme drop coilsovers, AEM intake with electronic control for MAF. And Tanabe Med touring Exhaust with custom

Etc etc, This build is an aim approach to install IS-F side rocker moldings on my IS250 OEM fender with retaining OEM hood as well as not doing overfenders like the OEM IsF fenders that cone 2" wider, i decided to go with the IS-C front bumper with a custom front lip as well being that they dont make any aftermarket lip for that bumper..... Please only positive comments if you guys like the build negative comment are welcome as i will ignore it. Lol thanks for looking

Default Lol!!!

Thank you guys, i've owned many cars in my life time but never owned one that i though i would heavly mod lik this one. Always done suspension, wheels and heavy engine mods thats about it. This one is taking a dif turn besides the fact that since the Is300 came out back in early 2000 it has cought my attention and now owing a second Gen IS i though hell why not go all out. Since engine mods is limited might as well go mod the body lol. More eye candy. I'm also undergoing suspension work as well keep you guys updated with that as well.
