The exhaust clearly doesn't fit correctly. If you can afford to create a clean Lexus, you can afford to put a proper fitting exhaust on it.

Thank you guys! Yes, it's Glacier Frost Mica paint and my car isn't really low compared to some of my friends. I'm practically stock height.

It's a hate or love thing with the exhaust. I will look into those headlights thanks!

Hey man really diggin the ride its super clean and really love the wheels on your ride, wouldn't of thought those would look good on an IS but they def do. What are the specs on these bad boys? Did you have to relocate the bumper tab to sit that low?

Everything is so fresh except the exhaust is kinda wack but you already know heh!

Yeah, I'm too broke to put on a proper fitting exhaust. That's why I had to put on this Junction Produce Type II exhaust.

Thank you and the wheel specs are 19x9.5 +25 19x10 +20. I had to relocate the front bumper tab, it was extremely easy. All you need is a small drill bit, a drill and a small zip tie.

love the car, super clean...even diggin the exhaust, gives it that VIP vibe. This has always been one of my favorite builds on the forum, a car i looked at tons when i purchased mine a couple months ago. good work!

royal origin whips are no joke, cant wait to see what else you have in store for it.

I dig everything about the car, including the exhaust. It looks badass in motion too.
