Thanks for the comments guys.
U did the rear handles as well? I've been thinking of doing this, but have been to lazy to do cause I have to cut into. Was it pretty easy?

do you have to cut the door handle holder to install the LED? and what kind the LED do you use? and where you bought them from?

you only need to cut the rear ones, the fronts have the slot already. check out this thread: https://www.clublexus.com/forums/is-...-cup-leds.html

thanks everyone
I still have a pair of brand new CF wrapped paddle shifters for sale in the classifieds. Ended up not using them cause I didnt want to go overboard with the CF.
Im still trying to decide whether or not to wrap my console and window switch pieces in CF as well..but I feel like its a waste covering up the $2000 wood..

Woah that's one fat steering wheel. Something the Michelin man would use. Not feelng it, if it was re wrapped with alcantara all over with the same thickness profile as OEM then it would be sick, something like the M3 steering wheel.

What's the difference between the ISx50 paddles and IS-F? IS-F is made out of metal?

They're made out of Adamantium

No in all seriousness though they're made out of magnesium alloy.
