NC IS300 new here!
Heya! I am a member on My.IS already, but I decided to jump on this forum too!
I live in Raleigh NC and I own a 2001 Spectra Blue Metallic IS300 with factory LSD. Bought it a couple months ago from someone looking to get rid of the car to go to college. I got an amazing deal on the car and I HAD to buy it when the time came.
At the moment, It is stock with an Altezza rebadge and custom painted black tail lights, LED plate lights and 4300k HID fogs. I am hoping to lower it and put some nice wheels on, and get intake and exhaust. I would be happy with just that!

welcome brother, I just recently joined here myself.
FYI, that grill looks suspect and not authentic, please confirm. If you have 4300K HID fogs, you should sand off the yellow so the color shows (unless you wanted yellow). I have 3000K HID fogs, but that is the color temp that I want.

Welcome to the forum! I apologize for the lack of manners from my fellow forum member. The car looks really clean which can be hard to find on a car that is a 2001. Do you have any plans for it?
If you are interested in checking out a meet in May, the one on this link is supposed to be really good in Virginia Beach.
Maybe I'll run into you there.

Lack of manners, wtf? what did I say that was rude or disrespectful? He just bought his car, and I just pointed out what I noticed. If I just bought something, I would appreciate someone telling me if I bought a fake or authentic item. Then I gave him advise on his fogs. I don't need you to apologize for me.

Hahah, thanks...lolol...
It might look suspect because it is suspect. I dont have the Altezza stuff on it anymore. Swapped out for the black IS300 badges on the back. Also got a Greddy Evo2 on it, and did a bit more work!

There is an HDR folder there, as we used my car to practice HDR with.
