Thanks Dennis, sorry for the delayed response:>)

Koolsport

Thanks for the kind words Akoster, I am sort of **** about keeping it clean, I even wipe down my mufflers cause they came with shiny stainless steel...ha ha

Howzit 808 , I did get the car used from Honolulu and shipped it up to the Big Island....yeah it's pretty rare here, I've seen a couple 2nd gen but no F-Sport ones..think I'm the only one..could be wrong though.
I've seen a couple 3gen f-sports around but they are 250's...
Mahalo for the thumbs up!

Great shots.
Ive just picked up an MY12 350 F sport in Vermillion (redish)
Had Mercs, VDubs and Audis until last week.
So far impressed with my F sport.
Youve given me a few things to go on (here in Oz)

I forget where you replied regarding the caliper paint kit, so I'm asking again haha. Which kit didja use?

Koolsport

I used the G2 High Temperature Brake Caliper Paint System Blue G2162 from Amazon $41.96
and added some cheesy F-Sport high temp decals and clear coated over them.

Did the kit cover all four calipers? Any particular clear coat?

Koolsport

Yes it had enough to cover 4 calipers multiple coats too. Its brushed on so get a small paint brush to do it, the brush they give you is pretty useless.
The paint will flow out after brushing it on and give it a nice smooth glossy finish.
The kit I got came with a big can of spray on brake cleaner
The clear wasn't anything special, I used a spray can of Duplicolor clear at Home Depot, just to cover the decals a coat or two.

Is there any rubbing with that set-up? Seriously one of the best IS350 I've seen.

Any regrets with this setup, I was planning on dropping with same springs/shocks.

Koolsport

Hey Zosopage..
Thanks for the kind words..I have absolutely no regrets with this setup...although some may find it a bit firm on bumps and potholes.
I love it because it handles great,.. I also have the F-Sport rear anti-sway bar.
Unless I make a sharp turn on a steep driveway or hit a deep hole fast it may rub for just a split moment, other than that its fine.
If you go with larger tires than what I have you will rub ,... my tires are 235/35/19 front and 275/30/19 rear.
