Default Semi New IS250 07 Owner

Hey guys, been here for a little now, few months, lurking around and just started posting. Just bought her in June, used 07, looked like new when I drove her off the lot though. Figured I got enough projects started that I could post now. I did NOT know when I purchased this car that it would become my new motorcycle project abyss!!

SO here are some of my first mods...
Carbon Fiber Interior dash/door trim (3M Vinyl)




RedOuts (ebay)



VLeds LED 5000k DRL, High Beams, Fogs, 194s, and Puddle lights





And just yesterday, blackedout the emblems with the PlastiDip



Let me know what you think so far? Loving this car.

Looks good. You got a lot of the little stuff out of the way quick. The big$$ stuff is harder to get. You'll get there soon.

Thanks guys.
Yes, it's the new PlastiDip fab...it rocks.
The cf was about $20 a yard. I got like 4 yards because I wanted a ton of extra. It would only take a yard to do the actual work.
