Congrats on the new ride. I agree, those newer style AWD 17's look a bit nicer than my previous 07's. I would wax the wheels asap and keep them clean, dirt, salt and brake dust are notorious for baking into the finish. Come join us in the Chicago section at the bottom of the forums. As for your tails, yes they can be switched out for the IS-F's. Their is also a separate adapter kit I believe for the plug and play.

Nice ride. Those 17's do look good.

Have you seen the new 18's on the 2009's, not very attractive.

It is the grey interior with the black wood trim. It is just beautiful, especially with the black stitching...

Congratulations! Many pre-'09 owners here are very envious of your dark grey wood trim.
