i try and keep all my cars looking clean. i really want a lip kit but to me kinda seems a little much without a full kit because looks front heavy. love the look stock but when slammed needs a little extra but i just hate most of the side skirts and rear lips.. i like the c west front for sure. but im not a fan of how biggg the sides are i just want a little slimmer sides.. gawd..

I am also new to CL and just bought a bluestone metallic IS300 with 69k miles last week. I love the car, but not the color.. yet. I have the polished stock rims, but was wondering what color/style would look good with the bsm color. Any ideas?

okay guys picked up my car last saturday. already had a little problem just coolant leak. no big deal. already fixed. also got a borla cat back on it. and just a cheap intake for now. need a srt one. has ibach lower springs. which i want coilover still. butt the car came from cali, when the dealer looked it over he said his best mechanic had looked into it and said that it has a good bit of money in it. such as internal engine parts. so questions would be. any way for me to realy tell without pulling the head? i wanna know what i have so maybe i can just turbo it without swapping it.

Welcome and congrats on your purchase. As far as what internals you have and everythign you wont know until you take everything apart. You can still turbo the motor even if it doesnt have any upgraded internals. You will be safe on stock internals on low boost.
