Stero87

Here's her formal introduction and beginning of her build thread.

I had a 2014 IS250 F Sport for about a year but I decided I needed some more horses so when I could afford it I dumped my 2014 for her younger sister....2015 IS350 F Sport. Her name's Alexis:




My goal is to keep the mods/customs clean and modest. Nothing extreme. Since last year I've been reading the forum and here's a list of what I have in mind (although anything can change at any time):

-Aimgain front lip
-OEM Lexus trunk spoiler
-Stillen rear diffuser
-Side skirts (?)
-Lexon roof spoiler
-Siebon hood (?)
-aFe Power Magnum FORCE Stage 2 Pro 5R Intake System
-Ark Grip Exhaust
-Wheels (?)
-Suspension (?)
-F Sport blue calipers
-LED interior lighting

First thing I did was get OEM All Weather Mats before the rain season starts. The stealership wanted to charge me $128 but I found them on Amazon for $90 shipped:




I live in Charlotte, NC. More updates to come this week!

Congrats on the new ride!
There is a build thread subforum.
You should post it there instead.

brendanf

And please please come up with a more original name!

Rebirthing

by the way, how much extra did you have to pay to get the 350?

Stero87

Dam I didn't realize that subforum was there and I can't find an option to move the thread. I sent an email to the moderators to help me out.

Inspired by Kanye West's "Couldn't afford a car so she named her daughter Alexis"

Stero87

$70 more....but no more personal questions!

STILLEN

Exciting to see how it turns out.

I'd look at RSR Suspension. Their coilovers and springs are awesome

Have a few things lined up to be installed (intake, exhaust, and tint) but most recently I bought this custom aluminum oil cap from a fellow CL forum member. Just a small item that will make my car more unique and "mine." Here's a before and after comparison pic:



I will post pics of the other mods soon!

Had my Magnum FORCE Stage-2 Pro 5R Intake System installed:



Bought it off of Autoanything.com for $327 and free shipping. Next up is the exhaust. I'll post pics up soon!

Stero87

Had the ARK Performance GRiP Cat-Back Exhaust system with burnt tips installed (ignore how dirty Alexis is ):









Purchased this system off of a fellow Club Lexus forum member who didn't like the drone. The drone is pretty strong (makes the change and keys I put in my cup holders rattle) but I actually like that. The sound this exhaust produces while accelerating and at higher speeds is worth the drone (in my opinion).
Next up I'm trying to finalize my choices for aero parts and wheels and suspension.
