What tips did you use? Did you connect them to an aftermarket exhaust or OEM?

Yeah I do, and it goes into two faux tips that are attached to the bumper, many cars have a single outlet that splits into two tips, for example corvettes. So I just have to find one that fits or get a shop to fab something for me.

Installed the Black Pearl ISF kit this weekend. I ordered the kit from Sewell Lexus and it arrived in two days! The kit came with all emblems front, back, sides and a plastic tool to help remove the old emblems. I've removed emblems on my other cars with floss and this was waaaay easier. I also received my Think Design shift **** from L-Tuned Parts. That wait time was a bit more like 6 weeks. However, it was made to order in Japan. The fit and finish is spot F-ing on! Expensive but worth every penny.

Man I was tallying up all the think interior parts and I really think I'm going to attempt to silver texalium wrap my oem parts. It's easy doing overlays on stuff, just need to aquire a spare old oven to cook em in to cure the epoxy in the past I used a oil filled radiator heater/ sheet metal and cardboard to "bake" my dash from my supra lol. Here's my current work in progress for those who haven't seen it or have:

Thanks! I think it really brings the console together. The tag frame was purchased on eBay. Ive been Googling "ISF license plate frame" for ever. And finally I followed the rabbit hole deep enough and hit pay dirt! I don't remember the store name though. I remember they had black and carbon fiber frames. If I come across them again I'll pm you.

I painted my front and rear 'Lexus' emblems and the 'IS' emblems to give it a bit of bling. In overcast the emblems have a matte black/dark grey color. In the sun the emblems have a nice shine to them. I first sprayed the emblems with 3/4 coats of black plastidip and then applied 2/3 coats of Dupli-color Clear Effex.

Note that the clear effex will prevent you from being able to remove the plastidip.
