Oh my goodness, with the lines of the IS, the Nori would be s-t-u-n-n-I-n-g!!

…and agreed, God bless Dodge and their embrace of the crazy colors. 😜

Default New front lip 💋!


I found this TRD ripoff and am astounded at the quality, finish and fitment for 120$ USD. Middle piece hooks up to the 4 OEM screws without drilling and you can mount the front and sides with 3M but IMO this is amateur and lazy. I went all in and drilled 10 pilot holes under the bumper (1/16 inch) that line up with those on the lip kit (holes are marked but not predrilled) and I used screws...it's not going anywhere 😀. I love the TOMS kit but too expensive for what it is IMO.

Default Also lowering springs arrived!


Lowering springs getting installed in March-April or whenever the weather permits and garage spring cleanup is done. I'm putting RSR downs, I think it'll look sick with the lip and summer rims with an extra 10 offset.

Here are the rims.

They are pricey, so at first I was unsure. But, I decided to bite the bullet, and they are worth the money. Turn-in is so crisp compared to the Potenzas that came on the car when it was new, and the car feels somewhat more planted and precise in the corners. The only gripe I have with them is road noise on the highway, which can be a bit loud at times. Still, I recommend them highly.

I agree with Alex’s summation. After 4 months with the OEMs, mine were replaced with the Pilot Sport 4S tires. I had them on my ‘16 IS 350 FSport too and the hookup with these things are a total game changer!

09twofiddy....Congrats!! After seeing your pics, I think it moved lmao!!

I had a 2021 white on white and loved it!! I tried to have my 2022 IS 500 in the same combo but the dealer could only find me a red interior, which I like, but the white on white was just sublime!!
