Default soon to be IS350 owner...if everything checks out

First off, I would like to thank everyone on this forum for their contribution. I've learned a great deal about this vehicle and found the guide Buyer's Guide to Used Lexus 2nd Gen IS Models (merged buying advise threads) to be very helpful providing great insight into what to look for when purchasing a used IS350. I am very excited to own this car if everything checks out.

The vehicle I am considering is a 2007 IS350 with 55k miles. I've looked over the service record and didn't see any obvious alarms. If you see anything that I should be concern about, please let me know. Thank you in advance.

I've checked it out in person but will take second look before I finalize everything. Is it worth it to take the car into dealership for inspection? They want a whooping $260 for the service.

Yes, vehicle has F-sport exhaust, intake, sub/amp and minor other cosmetic mods.

Why were fuel delivery pipes replaced? Was this a common issue on older 350s?

Did a search on google and found that it was a voluntary recall by lexus.

Seems good. My lexus had so much stuff replaced by previous owners at dealers. But she still a beaut and runs great at 97k knock on wood!

it all depends on the price.
