Hello all. I've been a long time lurker here but finally have a reason to post! I just got my car back from the dealership having almost all of the F-Sport mods installed (I skipped on the engine cover & the brakes).

I have to say I've got tons of respect for everybody on this forum. I've gone through every wheel/mod thread on the site at least 10 times and you guys (and gals) have some amazing tastes and some super sick rides. The IS is pretty pimp by itself but all of you have taken it to a whole other level.

I know I went the boring route with all factory stuff but that's the type of person I am. I'm super busy and I'd rather just have the dealership handle everything so I don't have to sweat stuff if something goes wrong. Big thanks to Johnson Lexus for taking great care of me. I was like a bunch of people on here that hated the F-Sport rims but I have to admit they grew on me, especially on black so that's the route I went.

The air intake/exhaust combo is freakin brutal. I just love the sound of it. Not huge gains in HP like you all know but just the sound of it growling down the highway gives me goosebumps. Still too early to tell on the suspension mods, I've dogged on it a bit and it still seems a lil bouncy but I'm sure things will settle in. I'd be glad to answer any questions if ya got em!

I apologize that the pics are so crappy, I'm going to get it detailed and have a friend with a real camera take some new high quality sexy pics but I couldn't wait and had to share asap. Enough babbling, here's the pics!

 

it looks awesome! wooo

 

Very slick looking F ride

 

Looks nice... I like the drop.

 

sweet! only one more thing to do...murder it out.

 

YOu should take a pic with the wheels straight so we can see the profile of the stance. Looks nice as hell though.

 

Very nice! I love the OEM F-Sport look.

 

Def, sincity. When I get the real pics (car detailed, good camera, better lighting) I'll make sure to get some straight sides on a flat street so you can get a clean look. I'll post em as soon as I get em. Thanks for the comments all!

 

interesting how the F-nuts stick out on the rear rims, and are not exposed on the fronts.

 

You look like an F-Sport model car!

I really like those wheels on black.

My only gripe is the yellow amber on your rear tail light.

How bout redouts? - or better yet stick with the F theme and go with IS-F tails!

 

Looks great! Keep up the good work!

 

nice...that exactly what I wanna do with mine....looks HOT!!! Congrats on your car man..

 

very clean man, where in nc are you?

 

Lookin' good!

 

congrads on all the mods. No one has HP gains more then you with all you have done. They are all sounds/looks. But I do agree the F-Sport Exhaust and Intake sound perfect! If I had not had the Tanabe I would have considered the F-Sport.

so whats next on the list?? red outs? blk out the lights?? paint the front grill blk?? you know it NEVER ends

thanks for sharing!
Mike
