AVS. I have the same ones. The end of the passenger ones are straight as opposed to curved.

The color match is 99.8% perfect. The spoiler may be a tad darker than my paint, but that could just be the angle the light hits the spoiler as opposed to the roof of the car. Basically a PERFECT match!

Still can't decide how to put it on tho. Not sure if I want to leave a gap between the glass and the roof or place the spoiler directly against the roof with no space in between. Any suggestions?

Also, has anyone used Betalink, or does everyone go with just the 3M tape?

Ah no one has either around me, so I've never seen either in person. I still kind of think I want to hold out for the JDM ones though!

Damn paint looks good on the roof spoiler. Id think a flush mount with no gap would look best?

Default Just picked up yesterday

I traded in my Master Certified lease for an USB IS250 sport for my wife yesterday.

Funny story, I brought her car in to remove and plug a tire and ended up driving a new car home for her!

Looks good. So did you see the F Sport inside and ask about it....Or did a sales person show you the car and "make a sale."

All of the cars on this thread are so beautiful! I swear my '11 USB draws 10 times more attention than my 2009 IS.

I love the blue. My co worker said I have the loudest color car in the parking lot. I never really realize how much it sticks out because I drive it everyday. Each time my wife drives it and I see it pull away, I'm like dang that car and color looks SICK!

With the black interior it looks like it's already been tinted, but it wasn't. I got it tinted before I took it home.

I actually work at a Lexus dealership in sales, so I worked up a lease and compared my payoff to my trade value and did it on the spot. Lowered my lease payment by 40 bucks while getting a new car!

BTW, the moved the car onto the showroom on Monday and I bought it on Tuesday! haha
