Second (and final) photo from the shoot with my friend. Some minor things coming soon. I will be ordering another All-Flit Automotive Lip and will be installing that myself. I have the side skirt kit already so that will go on also. I got a LexusBoys decal in glossy red to go on my windshield above my VIN number and 2 instagram decals to go in the small side windows in glossy red as well. I am considering doing my emblems, chrome grill surround and chrome window surround in black but not sure if I want to spend any more money lol

This Lex' is Pure Sex: Graphite Has Been Turned Into a Precious Metal on This Lexus IS



"Graphite is a naturally-occurring form of crystalline carbon," according to Geology.com. However, forum member <em>Mr_VFS1</em> has made it look better than gold on his 2015 Lexus IS250 F Sport.

I love the VLE-1s. I haven't had any rubbing issues yet on my current setup.

Did you use the screws with the All Fit kit? If tape, was it the one that came with the kit or some third-party tape?

Got the same kit and the same car waiting at home.

I had a shop do the work on my car for both cars I had. They mounted the lip up with tape and then used the screws that came with it to make sure it stays as well. The lip has been through a lot of dips and bumps and stays in the original shape with no sign of it falling off. I would definitely recommend using the tape as well as the screws to secure the lip to your car.

Will be doing a photoshoot with a friend tonight so the lighting he will be using will help show off the glossy look of the wheels and the metallic accents in the car's paint. Will post these when available.

The mods pictured are:
20" Vossen VFS1 Gloss Graphite (Custom) 20x9/20x10
Toyo Proxes 4 Plus Tires 225/30/20 F and 255/30/20 R
RS*R Down Springs
SPC Rear Camber Kit
Muteki Lugs

Mods not pictured are:
Greddy Intake

I have the All Fit Automotive Side Skirt Kit but I need to order the front lip. I've had the side skirt kit for a while since I was going to install in on my previous car but never got around to it. Should be on within the next couple of weeks.
Hey there! i love your setup! it's proper and really clean! just curious what's your offset on the vossens? looking to see how wide i can go without any issues.
Thanks!
