Default Lowering springs on a Leased Car?!

Random question, how many guys here have put springs on a leased car? I just leased a is350. I plan on returning the car to stock springs when i return the car at the end of 36 months. there have been on threads on this before but wanted to know if anyone had experience or trouble with this more recently. My lease contract from Lexus is very vague on what you can and can't do to the car.

Thanks guys. I had to go the dealer today to drop off some paper work and confirmed it with the Lexus financial agent.

My friends have modded their car to the full extent..

Tune, coils, rolled fender, wheels, intake, camber arms, etc... and they return it to normal before the lease is up. No problems, I'm actually leasing my 3gen is250 and put on a Seibon hood, Swift Springs, custom exhaust, Aimgain diffuser, and more to come..

spoke to the lexus financial agent at my dealer who said that a lot of the times they do not care/or do not charge if you return the car after the lease with aftermarket springs. My main question to him was if we could even mod our cars on a lease, the answer to which was: yes.
