As the title states, this is my first Lexus build ever. Having been an avid German car girl my whole life (BMW/MINI/Mercedes), it came as a surprise when I fell in love with a Japanese car, and I must say I have never been happier! I purchased my IS 250 from JM Lexus in Coconut Creek, FL back in May and I have since then done a few modifications but I plan on so much more to come! The first mod was the upgrading of the interior and exterior lighting to the VLEDs. I have to say it was a HUGE improvement. The second mod was the suspension. I decided to go with the RSR Super Down Springs which gave me the desired drop AND maintained a "stock-like" smooth ride. I went to Rodspeed in Medley, FL to have them installed and they also installed my 20mm AKATA spacers during the same day. My third modification was the GReddy intake, which gave my BlackCherri a nice little pick up and a great sound with acceleration. I recently had a somewhat flexible front lip bolted on by Rodspeed which I absolutely love for now. It will be temporary until I find a more permanent one. The pictures below are mostly from my instagram account so I apologize for all of the times and comments underneath. I will be working on getting wheels and exhaust next. (Not sure which one first) but I will keep you all posted!

 

Get the GTHaus and some 19" Vossen CV7 in Silver finish Join the team

 

Nice build so far!! Skip the Vossens and get something different

 

Invidia...because that's what you really want my friend

 

Thanks for your input. I have much to think about lol

 

True, it was what I really wanted until I heard the Ark roll by at the last meet! Lol!

 

I might do something a little different. We shall see.

 

ok did I miss something is that a newer model then mine the head lights is different
my 2014 is 350 fsport has one light rather then 2

 

Oh Wow. I just looked it up and noticed the headlamps are different. Maybe someone can enlighten us lol

 

1 headlight is just HID. Yours OP are LED
Looks sick by the way

 

Ahhh I see, that makes sense. Thanks for the info and compliment.

 

Nice build so far!

Just installed the Joe Z axle back this past week. I like the sound, no inside drone and a little more throttle response. The only problem is lower gas mileage, I can't keep my foot out of the throttle!

 

Car looking good mama...keep the mods coming

Here's a pic from the other day

 

Thanks for posting it for me 😁

 

I love that it's not too loud and doesn't rattle much but I want a deeper sound to mine. That's the only thing steering me towards Ark.
