Hi

I just took delivery of a new 2011 Starfire Pearl Lexus IS 350 with the F-Sport Package. I also have the F-Sport exhaust and the F-Sport lowering springs. Here are some photos.

Love it. Exactly what I wanted!

What's the tint % on there?

Any idea how the F Sport shocks hold up with the F Sport Lowering Springs?

Tint is 25% front, 35% back. That's the most allowed in Ontario according to the Lexus dealership.

With the sport tuned suspension the shocks and the lowering springs seem OK together. The ride is stiff because of the sport suspension - but the car feels really solid, especially around corners.

The f-sport exhaust makes a fantastic howling sound.

In Ontario, front must be a minimum of 35% everything else can legally be as dark as limo.

Yeah, sorry, I meant 35% front and 25% rear (not the other way around like I posted).

No I had the dealership do the tint before I took delivery of the car.
