Thanks!! I've got everything front bumper related down to the fog lamp mounts and "grill rubber seal" No badges and i'm on the fence with spending $1900 on wheels. However, after seeing them in person, they are pretty gorgeous so that might be done a little later.

I've done a lot of research on this and everything is a dead end so I feel like i'm going into this blind but I'm not new when it comes to modding cars. I've gone through five IS300s and 3 of those were turbo.

Will definitely report back with photos and hopefully I can get together a DIY Thread on this! Thanks for the support!

dxr, you're brave. Good luck with the install. And I don't blame you for sticking with a smoother ride. I'll never forget my neighbor running across to the street asking me if I knew how to take apart the middle console in the RX330. We both had them at the time. Turns out his son was prone to car sickness and upchucked right into the rear vents. Unfortunately I didn't know so he had to take it to the dealer.

Make sure you post pics.

Fell in love with F-Sport! Just picked up 2014 rx350 f-sport for my wife and 2013 CT200h for myself this past weekend.
Sorry about the phone pics...

Wow, a triple Lexus-family! Congrats! All great cars I have or had.

I'll make a thread about it and keep u posted.

OH MAANN... love that. Thinking of getting a CT200h myself... but i'll wait until the 2014 FSports get a little cheaper.

Here are updates on my 2011 450h. I thought I could make my 2011 Ballasts work on the 2014 housing but it's a tight fit and i don't want things to leak. So I need to order 2014 Ballasts. Also, since 2014s don't have AFS... i have a nasty "CHECK AFS SYSTEM" message in the center LCD. I'm looking at wiring diagrams on how to trick the ECU to thinking it's there somehow. Ran out of time so it's currently done and put together but HIDs aren't hooked up and AFS message is on:



I'll post up a thread on my adventures in doing the front conversion and how much everything costs! Still thinking about getting the RX-Fsport wheels. someone local has a deal that I keep thinking about, so I'll see if the wife wants it enough.

This looks like it's out of the factory! Congratulations on a solid execution on a supremely challenging DIY.

dxr

Thanks! the physical stuff wasn't too bad... everything was just clips and screws. The tough part was wiring up the LEDs to work just right. I'll post photos of all that as well as a DIY when I can. However, my wife is scheduled to be induced on Monday with our first child! So that may be a while before I get around to that LOL

Like I said the AFS Light is on which is extremely annoying since i"m constantly trying to gauge my current MPG. and no HIDs wired in yet. Wish me l uck on that!

Attica, your description say's your F sport is Star fire pearl, but the color in your pics look like its Ultra white?

Attica

You're quite right. I copied the "statistics layout" from another post and forgot to update the color. Post updated. Thanks

wallykeys

LOL, I thought so! Your F sport is the spittin image of mine!

Attica

I am suspecting my interior doors might be a little different to yours though

I wont hijack this thread with my door pics so i posted them here:
