my problem is i don't know which way i want to go. start with apperance mods, ie: led's interior/exterior, hid lows and fogs and tint. or alittle performance and sound, ie: joez intake, megan midpipe, tanabe exhaust and f-sport rear sway.

help me decide guys! i'm completely torn on this?

thanks[/QUOTE]

go FSport in the intake

I would do apperarance first since the performance mods wont offer much then sound. Lower, Rims, Body Kit, ect...Go to a meet to get an idea of what others have done

I did performance and sound first but have been thinking about doing some appearance mods' next once the weather gets warmer.

If its the is350 i wouldnt worry abought lights first since it has mostly led's i would do sound, ie exhaust then rims, that sort of thing.

Here is what I would do:

-Redouts
-Some front lip
-Lower
-Wheels
-Exhaust

Skip the intake if you are doing exhaust. You won't hear it.

you gotta decide what you want from the car first, do you want to have more fun with the car "performance" or do you want it to look different, you should pick one and go at it, . looks vs performance, park it / drive it you pick.

I always felt that wheels and a drop make the biggest difference. Having said that my first mod was the Navi bypass.... but the wheels followed next.

Drop and wheels. Nice wheels make the car. No drop with it ruins the wheels, though.

I suggest to go to our meet coming up if you can make it. There will be a few very nice IS that you can get some ideas from.

How much do you want to spend, is the question

take my TOm's REAR!! ahha

BS ISF

well put! i really want the car to handle and perform well. i drive 18-20K per year so i like a car to handle extremely well. i think these cars look good enough stock so i'm leaning towards the performance area.

here is my list:
joez intake
megan midpipe
tanabe exhaust
f-sport rear sway
tein s-tech springs
ichiba 15mm front/20mm rear spacers

i plan on keeping my stock rims for the first year. next year i think i will invest in some rims and apperance goodies.

Great Advice!!!

We all heard how great the F-Sport intake sounded first hand while we installed Vic's this past summer. Plus, looks much classier and produces a little better sound than Joe Z due to the resonators removed in the oem airbox (included with kit).

The IS350 is already a pretty fast car. I'd go aesthetic first... then some type of exhaust
