Waleed's 15' USB IS350 F-Sport
 
Hello everyone!
So I've finally decided to make a build thread for my car.
This is my 2015 USB IS350 F-Sport. Hope you all like it.

Before adding more power, decided to upgrade my tires first. My car came with Dunlop Sport maxxx 050's. Good tires when new but after 10k Kms they lose grip and car was sliding everywhere.

Decided to go with Michelin Pilot Sport 4.

The car feels completely different now. I feel a lot more confident while taking a corner now. The limit on these tires is so high as compared to my stock tires.

Just wrapped the grille and roof in gloss black.

Looking good man...love the blue!
Did they wrap the grill chrome surround in one piece? or two pieces?

waleedj3is Apr 27, 2017 12:27 AM

Thanks a lot!
The grille was wrapped in two pieces.

Got a new lower grille as the stock grille came with pre drilled holes for the number plate bracket. Looks a lot cleaner now.

coming along nicely! whats next on the list?

Sasnuke May 16, 2017 02:13 PM

I think the orange calipers go nicely with the black rims and USB body color. Good job!

nathantse May 16, 2017 08:29 PM

Did you get the calipers painted professionally? If so, how much was the job?

jkonquer May 16, 2017 10:15 PM

How are you getting the PS4's? No one has them in the states...

waleedj3is May 17, 2017 12:52 PM

Thanks a lot, guys! Appreciate it.
Next on the list in Takeda Intake & a tune hopefully. Just trying to extract a bit more power out of the engine.
