I've been using this forum for quite some time. Think I should make a build thread.

'16 IS350 FSPORT, Ultra White with Black Interior.
Fully Loaded (NA Specs), BSM, PCS, DRCC, ML

Current

3M Ceramic, 35% all around
Aimgain rep front lip
FSPORT axleback
FSPORT Shock Absorbers
FSPORT Lowering Springs
DCTMS Carbon Fiber/Flat Bottom steering wheel

Winjet foglights

Next "wants"

19 x 8.5 +35 (squared wheel setup, leaning towards Rohana Rfx5)
235/35/19 PSS or PS4S (when stock tires goes)
"Some kind" of side skirts..

Couple Pic's I had on my phone

DAY 1 - 9/16 after installing the suspension parts (Barely a noticeable difference lol, hopefully settles a bit more. Car handles way better with the FSPORT spring/shock combo, and has a stock ride feel)
NOTE: the pic below is filtered with more lightning so y'all can see the wheel gap.


DCTMS

 

Nice start!

Let us know if you need any parts!

Hi Josh,

If you carry any side skirts, please feel free to PM me a quick quote!

 

hey Nathan! did you do the steering wheel swap by yourself or have someone else install it?

 

Hey Davy,

I had my Lexus Tech friend help me out with it. I was afraid of the airbag, but it was rather quick for him. Took about 30 mins.

 

haha, i want to change out my steering wheel but i'm also afraid of the airbag. it's going to go off in my face! nah, i mean, i'm still afraid of it, but it's not going to go off in my face (hopefully).

 

disconnect your car battery while you do it if you are afraid, actually that is recommend to do in general for anybody

 

UPDATED: 9/24 (about a week since initial install)
Here are some pics of the fsport springs (lighting adjusted to see gap).

^ see, I told you that the drop was super subtle.

car looks good, though. very clean build thus far.

 

Yup, its subtle. Hopefully settles a tad more by 1 month (Like Leo's car). But I'll keep checking. Other than that, the car handles superb, and rides like stock.

Got plans to put 19s on it, which hopefully closes the gap a little more too. I've seen pics of RSR Half Downs (as mild drop as fsport springs) with 19s, and they look goooooooood.

 

Yeah, it will look super clean (depending on rims of course). Post pictures here --- I'm totally curious..

 

Will do, won't be for awhile though. Waiting for stock tires to give out, and just do a whole wheel/tire swap.

But, I'm leaning towards these (Rohana RFX5)... Any other suggestions would be great! (trying to keep wheel/tires under 3k)

 

those are nice, man. keep updating the build as you go along!

 

UPDATE: About 3 weeks since initial install of fsport springs/shocks

 

Winjet Fog Lights installed by specONE. Thanks again!

Fit is very good, a lot better than what I had seen with iJDMtoys. The Winjet kit came with holagen bulbs, I think they were 4300k. SpecONE had some LEDs laying around, and we swapped it in. Its a whiter LED, think the output is 5k or 6k. (Didn't quite look at the box).

Matches the headlights quite well.
