New pics of my IS
It's been awhile since I've been back on the forum due to a death in the family and being swamped with work. Thought I'd give an update of how my car is doing. I've since swapped my work equips back on to my MR2 and picked up my old enkei RPF1s from a guy I sold them to a year ago. Lasted about two weeks before I picked up a set if BBS LM reps and I am quite pleased with the look.
Comments and suggestion much appreciated.
Mods list include among oem goodness:
Factory 5 speed
Factory LSD
Dropped on auto fortune coilovers
Ralco short shift kit
Figs CDD
SRT intake
Token solutions o2 delete
Altezza front grill
Still an undefined front lip
Recently wet sanded and buffed the oem black housings
Rear roof spoiler
Custom 50/50 tinted taillights
Advanced keys smart key with oem Lexus push start
Still in desperate need of a fender roll which is currently scheduled for tomorrow 3-18-13
One last picture of my sons car and mine. Enjoy!

Oh and if anyone was interested here is a pic of my advanced keys install. If you have any questions just ask. I did the install myself. It is my second personal installation with the first one being in my MR2 Turbo.

Whats up RedAltezza,
Thanks for posting up the pics. Im in the process of getting back into the car scene. (had to let go of the gixxer). Was thinking about getting the JDM grill, however wanted to know what it'd look like with black housing headlights & red painted IS. Alas, I see your post.
I'm also about to do the advanced keys install in the coming weeks. Do you have any tips/'look-out-for" from your install? I have a standalone Compustar Keyless(Passive)/Autostart - and was wondering how the Advanced Keys system would work with other systems.
Anyways...looks good and sorry to hear about the loss

sweet IS I've always enjoyed the red color of these cars. Is that the greddy front lip? I think I've seen a "knock off" on ebay similar to design that caught my eye.
Really liking that push button start.

Looks good with those BBS What about the keyless start, do you have your key in the pocket or do you have to put the key in the ignition which, obviously, is relocated if so?
