Not feeling the red push button, but everything else looks great.

Like the rest of them are wondering, what's the five axis rear lights? Just the vinyl?

The tails look like they have a matte finish to them.

Very nice car. Love those rims. Im guessing the tail lights were sprayed one coat and you left the white portion of the light stock (nice detail).

Thanks for the kind words and feedback. I was on the fence about the Red TRD start button but after installing it I love it (I added another interior pic. It also lights up

Yes, the rear lights and bumper reflectors one of my favorite parts. I became friends with Troy from five-axis and saw their Lexus F-Sport show car (orange car below) and wanted to get the same effect on my lights. So, he was able to help me out . I didn't watch but I know there was paint involved. I can get more details if anyone would like???

The last mod I'm waiting for are the new F-Sport badges for the fenders. They only come on the limited edition IS-350 C (F-Sport edition). I tried to order them but they don't have a part number out right now.

I was going to go lower or get a body kit but I already scraped the bumper really bad in my parking spot on the cement block

I like the F-Sport chassis brace and F-Sport shocks but I decided not to get them because the ride was a little too stiff. For me, this is the perfect setup.

Oh yeah... the exhaust sound with the air-intake is great. It can be quiet if you want and really loud if you want too. I had some guy in a Infiniti G37 pull up to me the other day just to ask what type of exhaust I had. Great sound!
