Exclamation NEW Memeber NEEDS HELP!

I've had this is250 '07 model and i think it time for a visual change.
Does anyone have thoughts of what i should throw on it.

(its a stock grey silver color, those of you who have one know what im talking bout)

Thanks all help is appreciated.

Welcome to CL! I would say the most drastic visual change would be coilovers to lower your car. It makes a huge difference. However, if your not looking to lower it than i would say buy a lip kit. Other things you could do would be buy new wheels, trunk spoiler, roof spoiler, jdm rain visors, etc... Research before buying, good luck!

Honestly....there's A LOT you can do to the outside. Add a lip kit, spoiler, roof spoiler, change interior & exterior lighting, wheels & tires, change the grill, window tint, lower it, etc it just really depends on what you want the car to look like. Its your car after all! But i guess i just gave you a few categories to start looking in. Look in the huge picture thread we have and see what kind of things other members have that you might want on your car as well. Or attend local meets and see the mods in person

...and welcome to CL!

Thanks! Well do you have any websites or the actual names for them, cause im not trying to repaint my car just cause of parts. So do you have the parts exact model names or something?

You would most likely buy the parts unpainted and have them professionally painted at a body shop. I would start looking at this thread first to get an idea of what kits interest you. It consists of the various lip kits, grilles, and spoilers. It is neatly organized with links to each part/parts

Welcome to CL. I recommend looking at the links posted above and also just searching on our website for different things that may interest you.

In the meantime, I'm closing this before it gets way out of hand with every mod known to man-kind being suggested. Everyone is different, and so are their opinions and suggestions.
