Agreed! Black hides it the most; decal for a bit of flare. BBK one day, but the car needs some body first

Thanks guys! More mods and photos on the way.

The FIGS Mega Arms are great and have allowed me to bring my camber back into spec in the rear. They felt very solid prior to install, and are a bit different than the traditional EE or Race ones sold for the 2is. They are a one-off that Mike made for some pictures and testing he said! Basically similar to the "sport" version available for the 1st gen IS.

Hanging out with a few of the guys that could make it out from our group.

And I also grabbed a roof spoiler from oem.thing, really adds a nice subtle touch to the rear!

Quick update:
I recently installed the SAGE Racing RCA blocks, which supposedly aid with the life of my front CV's. They added a drop too, which I evened out with the rear, so my AWD IS is now without any wheel gap whatsoever as well as tucking tires ... no more 25" rule for now

Played around with the negative camber at Lexus for more wheel tucking and ended up with about -2 up front, -1.8 in the rear ... Tried to go more negative, but my toe went way off and couldn't be brought back in. Guess I need toe arms at some point.

Pictures soon!

Here are a few quick photos I was able to snap the other day....

Do you remember which exact bulb you ordered for the trunk? It looks great and the factory one is so dim.

Thanks!

It was apart of an interior LED lighting package from HIDPH (a vendor here on the forums). It has a temperature of 6000k.

Heres a couple of pictures from illmotion's annual Sunday School in Calgary, AB.

Felt a bit out of place with the stock body, but that'll change soon!



And a sweet GS that was also there

Not sure yet. I have some idea on an image, but I have a lot of other things to do first.

Photo credit goes to a buddy of mine!






Hope to purchase a few more goodies for her before winter hits
