Arrow aQuarius26's IS350 & 1st MODS (TEIN & ICHIBA)


So Ive had it for a couple weeks now, and am loving every bit of it. Just installed TEIN S-Tech lowering springs and Ichiba Version II wheel spacers (F:15mm & R:20mm)

Love the damn near stock ride quality and noticibly more responsive cornering this combo offers

Next up:
-JUN-TW Roof spoiler
-JUN-TW Sark fin Antenna
-JDM visors
-HID conversion kit
-Illuminated scuff plates (white)

Stay tuned...

looks good! I like the IS with OEM rims lowered with spacers. Makes the car look so much better. I am seriously considering just using spacers on the GS and calling it a day.

Those Tein springs are perfect for this car. I was very impressed with the ride quality and the drop all together. Great set up for a daily driver.
