This weekend I was lucky enough to start modding the IS. I started with an HKS Dragger exhaust. Just got it on this afternoon. I will post pics of it and the painted calipers when I can get them loaded. What is next? Who knows?

Add another mod to the list. I just finished my headlight and they look sick. I think they do and that is what matters. I don't have a camera right now so you guys will just have to wait and see them in person this weekend.
