Widebody FTW! 
My friend has a RauhWelt Porsche like the first pic and it looks so mean when he's driving it.
That last pic the fender flares are one offs he had those made custom. I love it personally.
Total cost is in the thousands, just depends on what route you go. Custom body work is usually very pricey. Then you have to get it all painted, Lexus paint is not cheap either. You can easily spend 10G's doing something like this, not to mention the big a** wheels and tires you'll need to run with it. If you like it, do it!

I know someone who owns one of those Porsches (mark Arsenal from Fatlace) It's wicked insane. Can't really compare to an IS. My buddy is completing his widened IS350 and should be out of paint in Sept. Stay tuned. It does cost $$$$$ and it definitely isn't for daily driving but it's a show stopper.

I can't wait to see the results on Sept! make sure you send pictures everywhere! I want to see!
why would it not be a daily driving if you don't mind me asking. It seem like it would drive better than cars that are slammed.

Do you think the IS would look crazy like one of those Porsches?

i think it really just depends on your taste really. i do like the Aimgain kit for the IS as long as you have the wheels fitment to match the aggression of the kit.
personally i like the cleaner look better, not to mention that aimgain kit cost an arm, leg, first born, and their first born lol

your car is sick" or "you did a great job building it." In the end it's all what the owner and creator has done with the car that is his/her trophy.

that's a great question and I'll just answer it as a yes the trophies are fun to win. With that being said there comes a point where I became the artist of my car and we ALL have the same canvas (2IS) but we all have different tastes and ideas. It's about the art work of it and the gratitude you get while building the car and showing others your art work. Don't get me wrong, it's great to hear

haha Thomas, you need to do something insane too! your like 10 months in with your IS, and you've done a lot as your first car! Do what you think looks good to you, not from what others think/want. but those are just opinions for you i guess. GOODLUCK, i know you'll keep it a secret when your doing something on your car. lol
