5 Worthy Upgrades for the Lexus IS
These are a few upgrades that can make your Lexus look, feel, and perform much better.
1. Body Kit
A body kit is your way of taking a stand and making your Lexus different. Exterior kits will change the whole look of your Lexus' body. You can find a variety of body kits on the market, from bumpers, side skirts, to the whole exterior as a package, even the hood. If you want to drive a Lexus IS but look like you are driving something out of a movie, a body kit may get you there.
2. Lighting
Replacing your stock lights with aftermarket LED or HID lights can change the way you look when you turn down a dark street. Aftermarket lights are extremely common as a visual modification; however, they are also beneficial, as they can increase your visibility at night. So if you want to look good and feel good, change your lights and shine your path.
3. Cold Air Intake
Replacing your stock intake system with a cold air intake can add a few horses under your hood. The cold air intake pulls cold air from outside of the car, and pushes it directly into your warm engine, thus increasing its power. This is considered the perfect first step for performance modifications. Add a cold air intake to your IS and you won't be disappointed.
4. Lowering Kit
Lowering your Lexus IS may seem like a modification exclusively beneficial to the eyes; however, the lower your car's stance is, the better it will handle. There are various ways you can lower the center of gravity on your Lexus: you can replace your coil springs with lowering springs, you can install an airbag suspension system, or you can install a whole lowering kit, which replaces most of your suspension components. This upgrade will change the whole meaning of "getting low."
5. Turbocharger Kit
If you want to truly take your Lexus IS' performance to a whole new level, a turbocharger kit will blow your mind. Aside from the cool hissing sound, a turbocharger kit makes when you step on the gas, the turbocharger kits can make your car EXTREMELY fast. These kits are designed to force extra air into the combustion chamber, thus creating a blast of power. If you want your Lexus to be special, this is one way of doing so.
