Default Lexus IS 350 coilovers

Hello guys, I have recently purchased a is350 and im looking to do some mods on it. I was wondering what the best coulovers would be for around 800$. Also would it look okay lowered with stock 18" rims? I would also like to know where to purchase a wald style spoiler. I can't find any anywhere. I would appreciate any answers.




This is what my car currently looks like.

Welcome to CL and nice murdered out IS. You probably can go with Megan EZ's for that price new or used BC's or Megan LP's or something along those likes. It will look good lowered but many people put spacers on stock wheels to bring it more flush. Have you tried eBay for the Wald style?

Here is some good info

Thanks for the response. I will look into the Megan EZ's. And I looked at Ebay but I was wanting to maybe purchase the authentic one, but can't seem to find it.

You might get a set of Teins for that price range.

You can also check the classifieds for coil overs and the Wald spoiler.

Good luck.

Authentic Wald huh...
it'll run you $600 for just a spoiler. But since money isn't a issue for you.

http://www.vividracing.com/catalog/2...0-p-65899.html

I never ordered anything nor do i know the reviews of that site. It's also not our Vendor here in ClubLexus so it's your choice. Also I spoken to Luis from Carson Toyota who works directly for Joe Z products himself said he could special order an Authentic Wald. here is there info. http://www.carsontoyota.com/parts-department/

600$ would be fine but didn't realize the cost to have it molded on. I'll have to find a different spoiler. thanks for the links though

If ur gonna mold, why not just save money and get a rep? Many here are running rep Walds, myself included. And with u having it molded initial fitment shouldnt be too much of a concern

It depends if you want to raise your quarterpanels or not.
Bodyshop I went to did some work and I didn't have to raise the quarters so it cost ~$300 for me. I have a rep too same as ISland350 so total came out cheaper than an authentic.

This is probably the route I will go. Hopfully I can find a shop here in oklahoma to do it though.
