Default My IS350 is complete for now...thanks to Rick@Status

After 3 months of ownership, I'm finally content of all the mods that I've done to the IS. It was extremely hard coming from a stage 3 Audi S4 to the Lexus IS350. It was lacking that sportiness if you know what i mean.

So after 3 months and piece by piece with a lot of patience, I can finally say i'm extremely happy with the outcome. Rick def gave me a sweet deal on the Work VS-XX wheels/tires. Even though the wait was approx 4-5 weeks, it was definately worth the wait Also big thanks to Rickster31 for his time and info!

the setup is 19x8.5 R and 19x9.5 rear with a 38 offset.
I went with the gunmetal finish because I wanted the mesh to be visible rather than black and imo looks cheap.

Now for the pictures!!!

Diaur, The car looks great! Awesome choice of wheels, I was suppose to get them! One question though, how is the fitment of the tanabe exhaust on the GFX kit? Do the tips not stick out enough? Anyway thats a good look!
