With all the swooshes, I can't help think that the new IS is sponsored by Nike. The tails were bad enough but now the front too.

If these were 19's I'd be all over them as long as they weren't going for as much as the IS-F wheels...

The LED DRL craze probably grew when the European Union started making them a requirement over there. Car makers figured that it would cost less to install LED DRL for Euro-spec cars only............so they figured that they'd make it a global/international feature.

Still, if what I'm hearing is true (AFS got the axe in order to make room for LED DRL for this model), then I'm a bit on the fence on this.

I do hope they bring it back next-gen............but I guess for now, we'll have to make do with these.

Still, those new wheels are awesome (F-sport package FTW!!!)

I hope that the headlights are plug and play for the 06-09

It seems like that the projector lens is more clear (better output)
