Default compatible parts with is350

I just picked up a 2010 tungsten pearl is350c and since theres no real parts for the car, I was wondering what parts are compatible with the sedan. exhaust/suspension to be exact.

Those parts are available but they are not interchangeable in most cases

Suspension/Coilovers for the C and sedan are the same... except the C has different spring rates.

Sedan exhaust will NOT fit on the C.

So the f sport is the only exhaust available? I've seen greddy have an exhaust on one of the demo cars that was in sema. Did that ever make production?

I transferred my "Fabulous Inferno" exhaust from my sedan to the ISC. Just take it to any muffler/exhaust shop and have them repipe the axel back Y pipe.

What about wheel specs? I have a IS350 now, wanting to move to a 350C next summer. Are the wheel wells close enough where I can move my Sedan wheels over...once I decide on a set I like of course. ha!

If I am not mistaken, the wheel specs should be the same for the C and the sedan.

wheel specs should be the same.

convertible is 18x8 +45 18x8.5 +50. theres a lot of room in there so it shouldn't be a problem.

Ive finally seen what you mean when I changed my suspension. the exhaust piping at the y pipe wraps around the rear diff. looks like an easy modification a shop can do. I really want the greddy evo exhaust to finish the look im going for.

A guy that has a sedan bought my old black wheels, they fit like a glove.

Thanks for the replies people! The '10's are coming down in pricing, so I want to move into one early/mid 2014. Had two convertibles previously and want to get into another one!

You're welcome! You will not be disappointed when you make the switch to a C!

I still love mine just as much as the first day!

Hey bleezy, I wanted to ask you how was fitment on your side skirts? I was debating on getting yours or the setune sides. Also has anyone fitted a sedan diffuser on the vert? Or maybe a toms diffuser for the isf.

AIT/SETuned Sides and Rear.



The SETuned sides actually have perfect length fitment and the rear part flares out slightly to match the flare of the factory lines.


ISC rear bumper has different curves compared to sedan and ISF... Probably doable but needs some custom work.
