Default PrezJay Build

I've owned my 2011 IS-F since April of last year and I was able to hold off for a full year before the mod bug hit... and it hit hard. Right after our socal meet I purchased the Joe-Z exhaust / intake and Swift springs.





I originally ordered the Tom's rear diffuser only but somehow got the front and sides as well... lol



I have matte black Volk VR G2s incoming this month so I painted my calipers to have a better contrast. Since I was already taking off the calipers, I changed the brake pads from OEM to Project Mu





And here's how my car looks now. Once I get my rims, I'll do a proper photoshoot.





Future mods: Headers, Coilovers, Arkym CF trunk if they ever decide to make it and some interior goodies. A big thank you to everyone on this forum for the inspirations and ideas

can't go wrong with those mods.

Did you end up having to pay for the TOM"s sides and front? If not, that's quite a savings haha
