I like it but it looks a little bulky compared to your sides and rear in a side shot. Are you planning on changing the sides and rear?

Nonetheless, nice looking 1st gen IS.

I like that look man it look aggressive and mean. Where did you get the lip from and do you have a aftermarket bumper on there as well? Diggin those rims. Clean 1st gen IS.

I've been looking at exhausts. How's the sound is it ricey or does it sound deep? I really want something that sounds good.
