What cheap upgrades can i do to my 2006 Lexus is350???

I was going to get coilovers to lower my car which would have cost me around $1500 installed.

But now...I want to use this $1500 and do a bunch of cheap upgrades.

So what can I do???

Thanks for your help!!!

I already have: Black 2006 Lexus Is350 with isf front bumper, isf black rims, tinted tail lights, tinted windows, led drl, M2 Axle back exhaust with resonator delete, cold air intake, black carbon fiber interior...

So what else can i do with $1500 budget?

Megan EZ coils for $600. Hid and hid fog. And led inside lights

i was going to go with BC Racing Coilovers which would have cost me about $1,000 plus about $400 to $500 for installation and balancing...

My house driveway is in 45 degree angle so most likely i would scrape entering and exiting...so i decided to use this $1500 budget to do smaller upgrades...

So what else can i do???

thanks!!!

400-500 for installation and balancing? you could just do it yourself for free. just have a friend help you.

if somebody is charging that much for coilover install, you are getting ripped off already

Megan EZ coils for ~$600. Whoever is charging $500 for install is ripping you off. Use the rest for hids or a lip kit

the F Sport sway bar set helps a lot considering their price. You can get it for $400ish from Sewell. Easy to install

What does sway bars do?

reduce body roll, under steer, and improve handling. The best upgrade so far is sway bar set. If you have some left over money, intake is next on the list.

if you have a 45° driveway, you need to sell your IS and buy a truck.......

If you want to save money, get springs... or scout the classifieds for some used coils. As everyone has already said - install yourself, there is a great DIY thread on here that will walk you through it.

ok, if i get sway bars installed without lowering the car with coilovers...will it still make a huge difference in handling?

$1500 for coilovers plus installation? someone is trying to rip u off. coilovers with installation should cost you more than $750. you still got enough money to buy a front lip or full kit? sway bars? tailights? intake? exhaust? just some suggestions....
