I'm not sure we ever formally met, I'm always too scared to talk to the heavy hitters haha. I loved your old IS and I love your LS! A big part of the reason I started an IS build.
My name is Zak btw

tiff with white lugs would look sick. I personally am not a fan of that color on a lexus, just drifters and the occasional subie, but i still think it would look good

That has been my hiccup with paint. I want to keep it classy. But not do the same thing as everyone else haha. You're right though. The colors are more suited for the drift cars and subies

my current dream lexus is a is350 black with black int. stanced on vossens with a ING lip and white hid's all around. debadged. deep lip wheels machine polished, 20x10 preferred but they only make they wheel i want in 22x10, still looks good. clean and classy. there are alot of IS's with te37's and rpf1's all kinds of colors and it just doesn't do the car justice in my opinion. Its a lexus, not a s13 or fd or fc. polished, machine finished, or black gloss, or a combo. thats proper. esp on a black car.

but each to his own, its what makes this game fun. just my 2 cents.

That's the great thing about cars. The possibilities are endless and everyone has their own style. It all depends on the look you want. I like both, VIP/luxury style and the more jdm/tuner styling. But I also have a big influence from the euro car enthusiasts

Also - does anyone have any family or friends looking for new insurance, or even yourself? I'm a Farmers agent. I would love to have the support of the fellow owners. and it would help me out a TON.

Sounds like you're a "conservative" modder IMO, just because the IS's has a Lexus name with it, it doesn't mean it's a "Luxury" or "high class" cars (I'm not saying its not a nice car by any means, I'm just saying just because it's a "Lexus" it doesn't mean you have to mod it in a certain way) The IS is a modifier's car because it appeals to the younger crowd and the car has a sportier feel then the ES/GS/LS. With so many modded IS out there, people are doing what they can to stay different. Everyone has their own opinion of what they think looks nice, mod your car to your liking because you'll never be able to satisfied others.
