Sweet car. Nice work. F-sport grill would be a great addition.

Looks clean I want your wheels

I know those stocks don't typically come on AWD but I must ask if yours is?
Stock height was pretty crazy lol
The real reason I ask is I want to compare to mine and see if I got ripped off thinking it's really closer to two inches.

Looks very good but i would consider a rear GFX lip to cover your exhaust tips that are sticking out quite a bit?

It's not an AWD - yeah it was definitely sitting high!!

I have the rear lip and it is going on when i get back from vacation - i didn't want to double side tape it and didn't want to rush it, so i had to delay installing - those are the GFX tips i installed before i decided to postpone the lip install - that's why they stick out... will look alot better once the lip is on.

Very nice! H&R is awesome! I have H&R springs for my Prius and can't notice a difference in ride quality, but I plan to go for coilovers when I get my IS.

That looks like a big drop for springs - especially considering you just installed them and they probably haven't technically even "settled" all the way....How much of a drop is it?

It's a great start! I think you asked if people considered painting the grille. Actually, quite a few people spray it with a matte black Plastidip. If you do a search, you'll find a giant thread with plenty of pictures .

Are you thinking of adding any other CF accents to accentuate your front lip?

Looks good

I would either put the front license plate on or remove the bracket and put in bumper plugs. Looks odd with just the holder!
