I'm loving it
Hey guys... My names is James and i just bought a brand new 06 is350. Just wanted to introduce myself and get to know some people in the chicagoland area. I used to drive an 2001 Toyota Solara so this is a great upgrade. I used to be on the solaraguy forum, so maybe there might be people here from there. My car is smoky granite mica with premium package and 18 inch rims. I haven't gotten it yet since i just bought it today and we are going to finish the paper work tomorrow. I totaled my solara so i ge this new lexy. Its also going to my 20th birthday present. Well i hope to see you guys onthe forum. oh and i was interested in HID kits so if people can post any info about them it would help a lot. Thanks so much! Can't want to get the car.

Welcome to the family. Wait till you actually bring the car home and start discovering stuff you never knew was there.... it like christmas everytime you drive the thing too. 
There's quite a few posts regarding HID kits. You can find most of your answers probably via the search.

thanks thanks guy. its from my parents as a 20th bday present but my bday isn't till november so its very early. i needed a car though so they gave it to me early. i just got it today and its so amazing. i'm afraid to drive it hard at all cuz of the break in period. they dealership said it didn't have one but i'm still gonna baby it for a while.

so guys im set on buying a kit from xenondepot for my hids, but the problem is i dont know what kit. i looked at all the of the pictures people had and i still can't decide between the 4300k or the 6000k. anyone got any good advice? i want to achieve the most light output and a stock look but i noticed that 4300k wasn't that much whiter than stock halogens. I know i know white isn't everything but i want to be a clear crisp white with no blue. Thanks guys!
