E46CT's 2016 Silver Lining Metallic IS200t Build Thread
Mine won't be as fancy as some of yours. Emphasis on functional or subtle mods. I'll use the commonly used format below:

Options:
Blindspot Monitoring
Illuminated Side Sills
Rear Decklid Spoiler
Current Mods:
Full LEDs including turn signals (See thread for info and video here)
12" JL Audio single subwoofer in sealed box spliced into stock system--very easy. (See thread for info here)
Tein H-Tech Springs
Hard Wired Dash Cam (See #10 on my blog list
) I'll try to do a write-up here when I have time.
4GS Door Seals
Replica LED foglights with painted fog covers https://www.clublexus.com/forums/is-...port-only.html (Update: Installed OE Corolla LED Projectors for foglights)
Front replica lip https://www.clublexus.com/forums/is-...-your-3is.html

I like subtle stuff if you couldn't tell from my posts. Car looks great lowered. I need to get my springs installed at some point. Also the dash cam thing is something I have been thinking about that or wore in a radar detector. Not sure yet either way can't wait to see more of the stuff you do.

Thank you! Dash cam is a MUST! Had it in my BMW, my 2016 CT200h, and now my IS. Some guy tried to extort me once telling me if i dont pay him money that he will make a claim against me for the (pre-existing) damages to his car. I tapped his bumper by mistake crawling on the freeway (i apologized) but it was a very minor tap, no damage to my brand new CT200h. NONE whatsoever. He tried to claim his bumper got damaged due to my car. Little did he know I had a dash cam that recorded the whole thing showing clearly his car was damaged before i tapped it. Of course I let him talk and talk and then at the end is when I revealed I had a camera. Needless to say he never made a claim.
PS--added 4GS door seals. Almost forgot about those!

I really am envious of the non F-Sport front bumper because it has provisions for stock toyota fog lights. For which there are beautiful cheap and VERY nice powerful LED bolt on options for. I'd consider getting a non F Sport front bumper just for the fog lights! I don't know why Lexus gave us those crappy holes on the front bumper. They're completely pointless. Good lights need SIZE.
