Default WIZARD Lexus IS350 mods

Hi I am new to this site lurking around pretending to be in your club for months untill Yesterday I purchased a Tunsgen Pearl 2008 LEXUS IS350 with only 18,400 Miles on it fully loaded minus ML, Pedals, XM Radio, Suspension, Steering dampers, springs, sway bars etc LOL. But I promise you it has everything else.

I am making this post for My car Only and All the modification I will be preforming to my vehicle in the next 2 weeks. I am really weird how I mod. Before I even own a car I purchase all the customization parts before hand, so that when I do get the vehicle I can spend a few weekends just hooking it up.

My goal is to keep my vehicle engine stock as possible as far engine mods I love the comfort and low engine noise it makes. I do hate body roll hense why I am upgrading to the Sway Bars.
I upgraded from a 2002 Toyota Celica GT-S

The list below are the mods I will be doing to the vehicle (Top is current most recent project im working on and on the bottom are projects i finished

- 6000K Upgrade to Factory HIDS/Brights/Foglamps (Pending)

- Nav Hack (Completed)
- Smart Card W/KEY CUT (Done)
- Door Trim (completed)
- Tired air caps (COMPLETED)
- Cargo Net (COMPLETED)
- V11.1 update for the navigation (Completed))
- Nav Upgrad from V7 to V11.1 (Completed)
- F-Sport Sway Bars (Completed)
- HALOS (Completed)
- Subwoofer custom made box (Completed)
- ROCKFORD AMP (Completed)
- DYNAMAT-Recieved (Completed)
- XM RADIO RECEIVER/FIT KIT (Completed)
- V Carbon fiber vinyl Trim Rear (Completed)
- Roof Spoiler (Completed)

- Steering Damper (Completed)
- F-Sport racing pedals (Completed)
- Interior light bulb changes (Completed)

You guys are released from stand by mode =0)

Please ignore the dealership advertisement I am in no way sponsoring them just to lazy to take it off. Will take them off when my plates come in the mail.

2008 IS350 18,435 Miles

OTD $31,000

Guess you pay extra for Certified Pre-owned vehicles

I feel I paid a tiny bit to much but I really wanted the car and I tried my hardest to talk them down but they wouldn't budge =0(

what do you guys think? First time ever dealing with dealerships errr I hate them sooo much...They pretend to be your friend but there out to screw you and I'm out to screw them
so why can't they just meet in the middle anyway just ranting haha

like the car?

Tonight the first mod begins....now I know theres a video made of this so I will just copy paste the video of the mods I'm doing. I will take a before and after picture so you can see the upgrade.

Below is the video of the mod I will be preforming tonight
(I did not purchase LEDS from this company) I only used them as a reference how to install the LEDS
