lol it is, I meant w/ all the leds turned off. Your/The car is sick. I truly think too many LEDs though but if your happy bro, I am, sincerely. I didn't mean to be rude, or pass judgment.

Moto - the picture of the front of the car looks mean, and that's how the rest of the car needs to look! Here's my opinion on how you do it:
I know you've invested a lot of time and money getting your car to where it is today, so please don't think that I'm hating on it. But you've got a chance to take your IS to the next level if you do it right.
- Ditch the LEDs. They serve no purpose and are tacky.
- Ditch the chrome pillars ASAP. Instant improvement right there. Paint it black if it's too much of a pain to remove.
- Complete the Wald kit. The CF on the side and rear is okay, but it does not flow with the front bumper.
- New wheels. Something dark with a more aggressive offset. In the interim, try painting the lips white and adding spacers.

Love it, thank god theres something different around these forums. You definitly put alot of time and effort into this ride, I must say you did a good job honestly.
The LED's around the front bumper look a bit off, but I'd definitly like to see a night shot if possible get a decent camera or have one of your buddies take a night shot for you, I bet it'll justify all the other negative comments in this thread regarding them.
Also I'd probably change the wald lip and get a CF Fabulous lip instead, of course to go with the flow of the rest of the kit.
The Angel eyes and LED in the headlights are definitely pretty sweet, nice looking car.
Also remove the chrome pillars, I think the chrome throws the cars theme off... CF/White is perfect.

Looks better than what it was before but still not my taste. The Wald lip looks weird by itself and I'm guessing it's a replica? I would ditch the lights like everyone else says, makes the car look cheap. You drive a Lexus not a Honda
