Default 2013 ISF new owner

Hi, new to the Lexus family. I've got this used 2013 ISF in very good conditions. I want to find some carbon fiber pieces and also some recommendations on what break pads to use, the OEM ones are too dusty. i would also like some info on the diffuser, or planning on carbon wrap the rear bumper diffuser area.... Any comments are welcome. Thanks

Congrats Man!
It looks EXACTLY like my 2012 one! So I can only say 'god choice'

For the pads I'm switching to Project Miu HC+ - I had then on my previous 330i and they were quite ok and MUCH less dusty than OEM.
For the rest I can't help, as for now I'm keeping my car stock - I use it all the time and reliability is must.

It's a 2013 Nebula Gray Pearl, with what it looks like 2008/2009 OEM F wheels. Beautiful! Color...

Welcome to CL! I love the color combo. Nebula Gray has been growing on me lately especially with the red interior combo makes it look perfect!

Yes it's a 2013. The wheels looks like the 2008 but the 2008 are charcoal grey completely. These have the very front of each spoke polished and the rest charcoal. These are 2013.

Very nice combo indeed. Outside of USDM, the polished blades are offered, along with the other two styles. But for the USDM, that style was only for the '08-'09 wheels, and the polished version solely reserved for the Neiman Marcus launch edition. I agree, the look on the wheels is stunning. And seeing it on a Nebula Grey Pearl, a color that was not introduced into the lineup till midway through the IS F progression, it is definitely a looker.

Nice color, wheels & weather (it's in the 30's here). And it's great to see another F on the track.
Welcome to the board.

Welcome and congrats on the purchase, maybe the owner swapped with another F owner wheels before returning it to the dealer. I've seen someone on here asking to swap wheels with others so it's a good possibility I think all 2012 and up came with the bbs Ch style wheels
