Crafted | 3is
Hey CL, picked up my 2015 IS250 Crafted Line edition March of last year. Let me know what you think!
Package details:
25th Anniversary
1,375 units produced
Ultra White exterior
Black F Sport wheels
Obsidian grille, side mirrors, and door handles
Black/Scarlet interior
Blind Spot Monitor w/ rear cross traffic alert
Navigation
Special edition Key glove
TUMI x Lexus luggage set
Current upgrades:
20% 3M Color Stable tint
Gloss black trunk lip
AP2 exhaust tips
Interior/puddle/trunk/reverse LEDs
Akebono front brake pads
BC Coilovers
Ichiba V2 wheel spacers
Future plans:
Aftermarket wheels (18's)
Maybe:
Front lip
Roof spoiler
Rear diffuser
Exhaust system
I'm going to hold off on getting an exhaust system since my last car was pretty loud. The quiet ride is a nice change from what I was used to. But I didn't like how the stock exhaust finishers looked so I picked up a set of AP2 exhaust tips. A common mod for the 2is guys. I personally haven't seen anybody do it for their 3is. They do stick out a little farther but overall pretty happy on how they turned out.

Thanks! I almost got an Atomic Silver until i saw this car.
Thanks man! The interior is one of my favorite things about this car. I actually wouldn't mind if the seatbelts were red haha. Those steering wheels are nice. If I can find a good deal on them maybe ill pull the trigger.
I appreciate it, I will let you know!
Stay tuned for more pics...

I'm having a hard time deciding which wheels to get. So for right now I went ahead and added Ichiba V2 spacers.
25mm front
20mm rear
Nice and flush.

No discomfort or anything like that. I went with 12k front and 10k rear for the spring rates. The ride is obviously stiffer than stock but it's not harsh imo. I haven't driven other 3is with different suspension setups to compare them to. But overall, I'm happy with them.
I went with their regular package. They aren't super bright but that what I wanted. The 6000k color temp is perfect imo.
Here you go.
