Sorry guys, but I'm probably gonna get these wheels or Five axis wheels dropped on coils too. But not until I've saved up some money first.

Either Vinyl vs. Paint

You can ask your local shop to do Vinyl for the roof. Another option is getting paint. That's what he did to his car.

I've come to the conclusion that the Vertex kit doesn't go with all wheels... it goes best with 'clean' looking wheels. These new WORKS are very 'clean' looking and makes your IS flow just about perfectly. Other wheels I would call 'clean' looking are something like Vossen 084's, if you get where I'm coming from. They too, flow with the Vertex kit sweetly.

I was looking at other pictures of the Vertex kit with other types of wheels that are less 'clean' looking... perhaps more 'aggressive' looking like mesh style wheels, ala Volk SF-Winnings or WORK VSXX ect... and for some reason the car doesn't flow as nicely with the Vertex kit, they work better with something like the GFX kit slammed on coils.

Anyway, just my observation and just saying: your car flows exceptionally well and is put together cleanly. There's few cars I REALLY like here on CL and yours is one of them. Good job bro.
