Is it me or are 2017 IS parts hard to come by? I currently own a 2017 IS200t and looking for parts but almost everything is 2016 and down..if anyone can help me I would appreciate it 😁

 

I saw maybe 1 or 2 of those lexus parts online places started listing 2017... so you should start to see more and more places with them in the next little while

 

Aftermarket parts?

Almost all 2014+ parts fit the 2017 , except exterior..

Let us know what you're looking for and we'll get it taken care of.

Looking for some exterior parts..do you have a website or do I just text you? Lol..also were you able to find that carbon diffuser?

 

Send a link plz 😁

 

Shoot me a text. Only Artisan Spirit at the moment. The Seibon one won't fit.

Artisan only makes it in FRP too.

everything from 2014-2016 IS will fit 2017+ except for the following,
Front suspension
Front bumper lip type extensions.


Things that will fit,
Hood
Rear supension
side skirts
rear diffuser
trunk
spoilers
exhaust
intakes
etc.

 

Oh interesting, I did not know that

 

The lower control arm changed to the 4th gen GS and 1st gen 1RC style.
So lower shock mount does not work unless you were to get GS/RC specific setup

 

so you're saying that some GS/RC parts will fit the IS?

 

The suspension and engine bay stuff (i.e. Intake, strut bars) yes.

 

Hey specONE, can you clarify the front suspension not fitting? Is that including springs, too, or just coils?

 

This knowledge i learned from the forum. Someone tried to install coilovers from '14-16 model on their '17 and found out it did not bolt on. Then they figured out the difference and ordered the lower control arm from earlier year car and swapped it out and got it done.

I do not know if springs are different or the same but the shocks are definitely different. If you are really interested in knowing, The best thing to do is to compare part numbers between the years and see if they stayed the same or changed. I am not going to go sit there and figure it out as it is not of value to me.
It only takes some time to do some research into this information online and have a definitive answer. https://www.lexuspartsnow.com/ do a query search and compare part numbers

 

Is there any stickys or any threads with a complete list of parts needed for diy maintenance? I was trying to find some but everything seems so scattered.

I think it would be great to have a list for each year/model/250/350/rwd/awd

mainly for:
oil
oil filter
air filter
brake pads
etc.
all fluids
etc.
