Hi Guys. New here to the forums. Been in WNY my whole life. I never saw the lime green wheel IS although I live in the Sheridan and Niagara falls Blvd area.

Either way, add another black IS to the list.

That's my old rig there.

I hope to lower it, mild catback, and some appearance items in the future. Just enjoying it for what it is right now!

Hope to see some of you around!

We all should meet up sometime and get some photos. Preferrably when the weather gets better. It's nice finally seeing some 3is CL members in WNY.

that's not that bad of a price.. where'd you have it done because I just got coils and and I'm itching to get them installed!
from my experience with my past car the place to get an alignment is on walden ave called Licata's.. they have experience with lowered cars and are real cool. There is also a tuner shop on transit across from the eastern hills mall but never been there yet

Ooo i think that’s the old enterprise building, I thought they just sold cars there. Def have a variety of cars though...

If anyone needs window tinting let me know. I use this guy Dennis he did my whole car for $200 does an awesome job. He doesn’t have a shop though so he comes to you but you need a garage that’s how he keeps cost down.

^its called swiderski, owned by a guy named Justin. He's nice, but one of those guys who scoffs at anything that isn't German. Funny you mention Dennis because I know that, at least before, he would do some tint work out of Justin's old place in Tonowanda

Not sure what brand of tint he uses but he did 50% on my car. His number is 716-316-8076 his name is Dennis just shoot him a text and he came recommended from Rick with that black Lexus he tinted not long ago.

I also have a F-Sport air filter from the 06-13 IS if anyone wants it for free. Its the blue one that came with the f-sport intake (I just have the filter left from it).
