Your F looks great so far. Good job on the mods! Like the rest, awesome choice of aftermarket rims!

Dang! that's a lot of modding for having only 3 months~ I got mine for 2 months, and only got wheels on.
Great photos! and really like your wheels a lot ^^

Thanks everyone for the kind comments I uploaded higher quality pictures last night.

Thanks Mike. The tires are 285/25/20, and 245/30/20. not sure what the offsets are just yet

"Form AND Function" is certainly my moto... glad that my car broadcasts that message well though I might be pushing it a bit with the 20" wheels, lol.

We got our IS-F 1 month apart. I bet i'll beat ya to a header install.

Haha... given how loud I find it with the Joe-Z exhaust alone, I wouldn't even take that wagor

After seeing the 35% tint on your car I think I'll go ahead with that shade. What brand tint is it?
The shop that installed my alarm contracts w/ a third party installer to do the tint, so I didn't get the details of what they use... all I know that it has a life-time warranty, lol.

That said, I used 35% tint all around for over 8 years on all the cars that I've owned and never had problems with the cops *knock on wood*. I would note though that all my previous cars had a light interior as well

Thanks! yeah I had an idea of what I'm going for from day one. This is obviously not my first attempt to mod a car, so I sort of know what works and what doesn't (for my taste). But let's just say that nothing was left from annual work bonus when I got through it all, haha.
