I picked this up yesterday!! An 08 IS250 RWD GFM Certified with 19K on the ODO.

Nav with Premium Package, with black interior. I'm not sure what mods I will do to this yet. Any suggestions? I will probably need to get it wrapped first.

 

Cool! So you got two ISs now?

Very first thing I did when I got mine was get 3M clear bra installed. Then I got it lowered.

 

Congrats on the IS!

 

Sweet man, hope you enjoy it....
Throw Sway bars, lower the thing, and maybe the Intake and Exhaust...

 

congrats on the new car! i'd say get tints first

 

^^^ Yeah tints should def go right away too...

 

congrats on the new car. +1 on tints!

 

Thanks all! I'll see what I can do about the tints and the wrap.

-----------------------

For now, I have two IS's until the next few days, the ownership of the blue IS will go to my father.

 

nice GFM. very interesting color. i love it. get it wrapped. protect that paint.

 

As for 3M, should I wait? I plan on getting the GFX kit so I guess it is best ot wait so it can all be done in one shot rite?

For lowering, I am not sure if this car is already lowered. For one thing, it's lower than the blue one which is AWD. The other thing is that when I checked a 2010 RWD IS which was in the dealership parking lot with 17" tires, there was more wheel gap and seemed a bit higher off the ground.

When I went out to eat yesterday and came out a restaurant, I saw 4 people (2 couples) looking at the car. Somethign like, it must be that "Lexus", maybe cuz it was sort of shining it's unique color.

Definately want to wrap her!

 

Is that a black interior? If so, holy crap. You got the car I was die-hard looking for when i got mine. GFM with black interior and those liquid graphite color wheels. All the ones i kept finding where cashmere interior Congrats though on your new ride! Lower that thing ASAP

 

congrats on your new ride!

 

If it really is lowered already and you like it like that, then that's pretty convenient!

I waited a bit too long to get 3M and I ended up getting rock chips on the car. I honestly would prefer it to be done one shot but I would definitely get the GFX kit soon if rock chips bother you.

 

Yep!! This vehicle does have a black interior.



I was a bit surprized that the NAV unit had a screen protector on it - the previous owner must of put it in and comes in handy protecting it. Also in the pic are the two air fresheners (one on each vent) which I put in.

I am not sure if I want to lower it. It seems quite low already, especialy if I need to go up those parking decks with those sharp inclines. I probably would not prefer scraping the bottom out and planning on getting the GFX too.

 

Congrats! You have my car and oddly, we have the same mileage too. lol GFM is not a common color and they were hard to find when new. My dealer actually had two with the black interior, while most others had none. Just watch the color matching if you need to get something repainted. This color is very hard to get right, but it is possible. And you'll notice people will comment on the color before they comment on the car. Or at least that's what I've noticed.
As far as springs, I did F-sports on mine and I have absolutely no problems or worries with scraping. It really made the car appear sportier and more aggressive if that's the look you are trying to achieve. Enjoy the ride!
