Just stopping by to introduce my self! I am brand new to the Lexus world in general, but I have had my eye on the 3rd gen IS's for a while, love the new body style! Here it is Nebula gray pearl F-sport, I am really loving it so far. We also love our older Nissan's as well, he has a Datsun 280z (orange one in the picture below) and I own the white 300zx TT as well. My new Daily
And my white 300zx TT, the garage queen!

Welcome to the family! I think it looks really good, need a few more upgrades to compliment the tail lights. Feel free to PM if you may have any mod questions.

Hey everyone just saying hello. Picked up my 14 awd IS350 FSport about a month ago. I traded in my heavily modified 2010 wrx in for the Lexus. It was time for a change any car person understands what I mean. Plus it was eating oil and the trans was on its way out. It's obsidian black with black interior and Nav. So far I got the car opti coated, 30% tint, front grille and window trim blacked out, ijdmtoy yellow fogs, de-badged the trunk, front lip, trunk lip spoiler, and a Stillen axle back. Here's some pictures. My wrx I traded in.
Will always have love for this car. And will be missed.
Opti coated, tint, and trim blacked out
Front lip, fogs, and grille blacked out
Stillen axle back
Lip spoiler installed
My fiancée also has an 04 IS 300 Sportdesign and I also have an 08 civic si full bolt ons and a bunch of exterior mods.

Fiancées IS300 Sportdesign

To post the large pics click the Image icon when you are typing your post...it's in the header of the post box, its black and white and looks like the sun over a mountain...right next to the Happy face.

The headlights...I believe...is the difference between the LED and HID ones...I could be wrong though.

^^^+1 on the headlights. Another thing to add is the dual-LED projector lights are not available on Canadian F Sport models, only in the Executive package IS 350.
MY '17 though, only one projector lamp for all N. America and it's LED.

Someone in my building had a IS F sport with the dual projector LEDs and fully optioned out. I think it was a 2016. Whenever I see another 14-16 IS driving around, I try to guess what year they are. Were the headlight washers 2014-2015 only? What year did they start putting the F- Sport badge on the trunk, 2016?
