Air ride cars always looks good, IMO. Sure, you lose the performance aspect of the F, but with your build, that wasn't your intended purpose. As long as you mod it for you and only you, there should be no problems. I would definitely like to check it out in person, though- just to see what the stance is and how low it really is compared to a static drop. Props to you for doing the work yourself!

Hmmmm I can appreciate your build and enthusiasm I like the stance scene myself but only on certain cars I say if you had an IS 250 "F Sport" you woulda been fine I say the F is best suited with a nice static stance but kudos to you for doing what you want

Not a fan of stance, but kudos to your mod.

i remember when people first started bagging ISx50. Tons of negative comments, but now everybody is bagging ISx50 left and right. OP do you man! that is what it is all about. I think it looks great can't wait to see a photo shoot done. Keep us posted
