Talking First Post on CL

Good morning guys,
I'm new to Club Lexus I bought my IS250 8 months ago. Never thought my first car would be a Lexus! I haven't done much but I changed my headlights to the LED's to make it look never, put LED lights inside and plasti dipped my wheels & front grill. Hopefully by June of 2016 I'll probably put some CV7 in my car. I'm stationed in North Carolina, if anyone knows of any meets in NC can you guys please let me know?
Thanks for reading my post!

Welcome to CL, you will find a plethora of knowledge and research here in regards to the car. You should post a pic for us to see, and if you want to track your own progress then you can even start your own build thread! East coast is a little bit dead compared to the west but we still manage to put something together.

Did you swap out the full headlights for the newer LED style ones? Or did you bake the existing housings and put LEDs inside? I am curious if it is possible to do the latter and make it look good.

Haha thank you ICY350! I'll be out of the country the beginning of 2016 so that means the money I'm saving up, is going towards my car!
