I just purchased my 2007 Lexus IS350 and have been looking around the forum for good mod ideas. I have the F-Sport exhaust and like it a lot, and it sounds like from the forums that the F-Sport intake doesn't do much for the IS350, but that the Sway Bar kit can improve handling (I'm only looking at F-Sport because my car's certified with an extended warranty, and it will only cover Lexus parts).

I also very much like the appearance of the LX-Mode Grille and would love to find one on here (since the price new is a bit much). I'd also entertain the idea of grilles that look similar.

So I'm interested in purchasing the F-Sport Sway Bar kit and the LX-Mode Grille. Thanks in advance for any responses!

 

I have the front sway bar I'm just about to post as FS. I got it second hand and never got around to installing it. The IS isn't a sport's car in my opinion so I've decided not to install it.

 

^^^^ you have a Is250

 

So? All that matters is AWD or RWD, this is for RWD.

 

This. They still will try to not honor the warranty unless you buy the parts from a dealership and have them installed by a dealership. If you buy the parts used, they are not covered by your warranty. If you buy the parts new but install them yourself or have an outside mechanic do it, they will only honor the warranty for a year.

 

Thanks for the background, that's what I'm learning from my research as well. I still am interested in seeing what I could buy the sway bars used for, and if it's enough of a cost savings over new, I may just go ahead and do it. I'm having trouble paying the $702 my dealership just quoted me for the sway bar set new.

Am still interested in the grille; that shouldn't void any warranty!
