New to CL!

I just recently treated myself a 2008 IS250, basically no mods, just got window tint along with new Hankook Ventus V12 Evo K110 Tires. I'm not sure what mod I should do. Any Suggestions?

Congrats! Welcome to Club Lexus. Nice ride you got going on.

Some popular mods would be lowering, rims, lights, exhaust, and sway bars.

Thank you=]. Also I was planning on getting the car lowered with the F-Sport Springs along with some HID lights but I'm not sure where I should get them from, any ideas? Also for the sway bars, what does it basically do for the car anything special? I'm new to all of these so I'm clueless.

Welcome to CL! Sway bars decrease the cars tilting motion when cornering so the car is more flat through the corner. Look in the suspension sticky thread regarding all the different springs. Has pictures of other 2IS's to give you an idea of how low you want to go with springs.

Prices are decent. I read that sway bars help the car handle better. I'm not 100% sure myself, so hopefully, some other members can help you. Rims would be all personal choice. Linea Corse LC818 and Vossen's seem to be quite popular among IS owners. My recommendation is search and refresh CL to see what others are saying.
