So I finally got around to processing the pics from ToyotaFest 2010. This is what the car currently looks like:

Did a little wiring...


Installed a switch...


...which controls my new front view camera. If you look closely at some of the pictures further down below you can spot it in the lower grille.


Color-matched my headlight housings Glacier Frost Mica:


This other funny-looking Lexus kept trying to butt into my pictures... I like my brakes & wheels better...






With one of the Brem-Bros, the one and only Noz.

This lip has really grown on me - I liked it at first, but it's now my favorite lip available for the 2IS.

I got the idea from the latest Corvette.

It never stops Jonathan, you know that! I've added some other stuff that I'll have to post in here later...

It's just an ordinary CMOS reverse camera - you can get them on ebay for $40-$50.

Nice car bro! That front camera would be great for me instead of parking 2 feet away from the curb .

Looking Good Bro... !!!

The JDM Fogs do look amazing on GFM....
You forgot to update your thread accordingly...

The one off mods on your IS350 are ridiculous... In a good way…
