You can use IS350 Coils, but the spring rate would be off cause the IS-F has different weight and power.

Sorry for the crappy pics (last minute quicky) I have this complex about taking pics at home. Neighbors probably think I'm showing off or something.
I know it's not the right way, but I drove the car from the dealership to my friends shop and I had him cut one coil from the front, no choice because no options yet
The car rides fine. It's only one coil. I'm hoping after SEMA someone will have a coil-over system for us.

^ Cutting springs?
...No, I know there are really no options yet! But I know there will be in the near future. The nose end of our cars are what really bothers me.
