I just love the car, it's a beautiful color choice. I'm from Ontario also (Windsor) are there any Lexus car clubs in Ontario? I bought a 3IS250 AWD F sport and thought it would be fun to attend a car meet for Lexus if they have any in Ontario?

I think there was one in the Toronto area back in May. We'll definitely keep our eyes opened as i'd be interested too!

Love the wider stance look! Crazy what a little 5mm spacer can do.

Niice with the wheel spacers. I'm actually planning to add a 5mm spacer in the rear of mine later this week once I install my next mods.

You got it!

But technically, not a Sharpie. I tried at least 5 different ones on a test leather chair that has similar light gray stitching as with the IS until the right one gave off the right daytime-USB color I wanted. This is it
