Cool My IS250 [Russia]

Hello!
I love this site and respect all active members!

Very often visiting clublexus.com to look for some info or pics...
We also have in Russia mini-club of Lexus Owners!
I post here some pics of my IS250 mods: *click on image to zoom*
K&N Intake:

Invidia MidPipes:

O2 sensors installed properly in the last picture.
GReddy Spectrum Elite Exhaust:

Seibon Carbon Hood:

I've installed all the mods by myself, so ask me whatever you want.
Also watch my vids: http://www.youtube.com/RenatMoscow

Thnx) quick reply)
Before GReddy I had HKS.. it was reeeally loud!
Intake + HKS = Good .... BUT Intake + HKS + Invidia too much loud. The headache is guaranteed!

Greddy is perfect! But if only Greddy without Invidia Midpipes - very silent.

Also, how is the vented hood holding up with the snow and rain hitting the engine?

I don't like the fact that water can get in mine, and am working on a solution for temporary coverage!

Nice mods so far. Love how the Greddy SE looks.

Quick question, what happened to your rear bumper? Is that crack or rip in the bumper near the reflector?

Seibon hood has rain-guard, or not? =\

What do you mean by "temporary coverage" ? To cover vents with something before leaving the parking place? Or to cover small vents from inside?
While moving - no problems, as you might guess. But while parking on open air - water can reach the motor area. But I think there is no reason to worry, cuz water can't do anything bad.. there are too much shields.. can't reach elecronic devices - so no problems.. it's not the car made by Russians)

It is crash when drifting in snow.. moved forward, but crashed rear bumber
It was something like in this video, but view weeks later:

Nothing interesting) Maybe only Red Square)
btw I was 7 years ago in NY .. Times square much better)
P.S. Hmm.. carbon trunk .. i'm also thinking about..
Is it manufacture in US or China? I've been told that almost everything from China.
P.p.s. it's too late in Russia.. almost early morning.. Nice to meet you all!
