Default New to the forum and Lexus family!!

I just bought my 07 IS250 a week ago and figured it was time to introduce myself to you guys. I am going from an 08 Tacoma to my new to me IS and what an amazing difference. I just love this thing. I can't wait to start with the mods and I am finding a lot of great info around here. Here are a couple of pics of how it sits today.

I traded the Tacoma for it. As you can see the windows were the first mod. 35% all around. I have plans to lower it and get some new wheels first. Audio system would probably be shortly after that. Any and all suggestions for mods are welcome.

Welcome to CL! As for mods, most people stand by the sway bars as being the best mod for our cars if you care anything about handling. I personally haven't gotten it yet, but trust me, it's coming soon!
