Default mrxchris' simple obsidian build
Hey guys! I just picked up a 2014 IS250 F-Sport last week and I wanted to make this thread to document any changes and modifications to this beautiful car. My previous car was a Scion FRS. I traded it in cause I wanted something a bit more refined. If you are interested in my FRS build, it could be found here!

Current Mod List:

Exterior
OEM Trunk Spoiler
Tint 35%/20%
iJDMToy 6000k Fog Lights

Performance
Magnaflow Axleback
Injen Short Ram Intake

Suspension/Wheels
RS*R Sports-i Coilovers
SPC Rear Lower Control Arms
(2) 25mm Front Spacers
(2) 20mm Rear Spacers

Here is how she currently sits as of 10/5/16:

Installed the OEM rear spoiler yesterday without the installation kit. I don't see a point in drilling the trunk, I think the 3M will hold up just fine!

I also had a 2013 White FRS before it was totaled. I now have the same car as you, but in white. Can't wait to see your build! I want something OEM+ as well

I didn't get a chance to install the suspension and spacers yet, but I picked up fog lights from a local member. Shoutout to @daobn24 for helping me out with the installation!
