VVti (Nuum) is taking good care of my at Hennessy Lexus of Gwinnett. Crazy to think we know each other like 11 years now. We did lunch at an authentic Mexican restaurant that was really good and he snuck out and paid. Damn I feel bad, dude paid for lunch and then is going to do work on the car. I cannot stop saying how classy these people are and the top notch customer service they provide. Shout out to Joe Guant the service director for always taking incredible care of me and my family, to Brian Westbrook for always supporting the local community and Frank Mullin my sales guy for making me spend money

Took this rare IS 350 F-sport limited edition for a spin. Review to come.

The comments these wheels get are out of this world. I've never gotten so many compliments on wheels before from so many people, no matter the demographics. Everybody loves it.

Here are some sneak peek pics. Went home in a CT I requested, can't beat 42 MPG

Guys/Gals, I can't say enough about JE, if you need brake fluid especially high performance Motul etc, give these guys an opportunity to earn your business. They are CL vendors

After.....for now....


More pics to come soon. Vossen's offered plenty of BBK clearance. Car feels great and brakes feel superb, a little squeaky when they are cold (and its cold here) but offer fabulous feel with the Motul fluid thus far.

Very happy..

Brakes look great Mike thats awesome JEimports were able to help you James is the owner they aren t too far from me at all as a matter of fact they installed my coils and put my Vossen 083s on. He is becoming widely known locally for his drift car builds they do alot of LS swaps he has a 350Z with a LS motor and as well as a 240 chassis and several others even was told he was doing one on our chassis! I also saw a IS-f with a turbo installed they did I saw them dynoing it. Your build has gone great the BBK is huge with the CV3s and the yellow is pure sex!!

A big brake kit is definitely needed with wheels that open. Looks really good.

Cool

Very happy so far. Still "bedding" them in If anyone has any questions they can ask me as Jun-TW and I have been chatting back and forth about this install. I know the yellow isn't for everyone but I love it and I plan to add a couple more yellow touches to finish the look. This is an i4S pic.

More pics to come soon.

I like it Mike. Yellow's not very common but it certainly grows on ya the more you see it. Certainly love the sporty flair the GS so desperately needs imo, it's a very sleek looking car. Can ya grab any pics from the front side with some side showing? Would love to see the front end with the yellow fogs and yellow brake calipers! They're awesome

Indeed.
I like the color and would be interested in getting a set just wondering how the cost compares to other BBK.
