Yes they should be able to, its a simple install.

Dealer shouldn't give you issues..

Contact us for more information and pricing on that midpipe!

Hey!!

I'm planning on getting an Invidia midpipe and Invidia Axel-back onto a 2018 IS300 f sport AWD.

But i'm just confused at the discrepancies from the vendor's website (jspec) and Invidia's website

INVIDIA MID PIPE - AWD/RWD??

Invidia says it is only for RWD.



However, jspec's website is saying its for AWD
https://www.jspecperformance.com/pro...id=p3913-c8931

Part# HS13LISAMIP (which doesn't exist on the invidia website)





From the images they look the same. So is there a difference in the RWD/AWD mid pipes? Has anyone tried putting on the Invidia RWD Mid Pipe on an AWD 2018 IS300?


INVIDIA AXLE-BACK - RECTANGULAR DIFFUSER (FACELIFTED IS MODELS)

Will this Invidia Axle back fit because it says its not available after 2015, and there is no IS300 option



In 2017 and on, the IS went through a facelift and the is250 became obsolete in Canada, and is replaced by the IS300. The diffuser and "steel cap" that surrounds the round exhaust became a rectangle shape, is that why the invidia exhaust (which is a large circle tip) won't fit?




I'm planning to cut off the tips from the invidia Axel-back and weld on quad tips because the new diffuser with the rectangular shape holes will snug fit the quads.



Being that i'm cutting the tips off the invidia axel-back, would this invidia axle-back fit into the 2018 is300 awd?



This is my first post.. I hope it wasn't too long winded!!

Thanks for the help, I really really want to put this thing ON! The IS is toooo quiet ... no growling at all
but the v6 induction noise in the cabin sounds beautiful stock!

Thanks again!
