Default Exterior upgrades

What is available that makes the IS300 look even better from head lights, to a different grill, etc....I like the stock body kit so nothing that extreme.

Ha yeah not looking to rice it out but make it stand out a bit but keep the class of a Lexus. I was thinking headlights, fog lamps, grill and not sure what else. The interior I like on the cars so any trim kits or anything inside I am not concerned with. The flux capacitor never even crossed my mind. Anyone have any links to a nice looking non rice looking IS I can use a reference to see if I like certain parts on the car or not?

Some smd chips there are like LED but alot better the more smd chips the piece has the brighter you can get them on eBay for real cheap. And they have reliability all of my cousins use them and have them on every light in the whole car

lol ok I would start with lowering the car, intake, altezza grill, headlight mods, tint, wheels, paint calipers, possible body kit depending on wheel style, interior lights, suede headliner, audio mods, full exhaust, sway bars, strut towers. You get the point, parts bought depend on color, fitment, and price. what I mean by price is you get what you pay for
