Default Hi, new here

I live in Belgium, have a wife and three kids, two dogs and three cats. And my greatest treasure is my Lexus IS 200 of 2005 to 42500 km. My wife is not happy that I do car tuning . The first pictures are in the beginning how he looked. And then there are small changes. Other exhaust, wheels, LED lighting, reduced by 4 cm (1.57 inches) and a spoiler. Now, save for 19 "rims and a body kit. Can anyone give me a tip to convince my wife that these adjustments are necessary

Sorry for my poor knowledge of English.

Peter

just tell her as it is, you are a man and modding any car you have is in your blood you just can't help it lol. having a stock car is plain and boring because it is just like everyone else's, modding it makes it unique and your own car the way you like it and want it.

I have already told all. She says that thing is to ride and not to mess with . Women? Who understands them.

The IS on the left with the 250/350 wheels looks so much different than stock wheels. The IS300 stock wheels make the car look a little wimpy beside the one with 250/350 wheels, LOL!

Great cars!
