Here's my GS. She is lowered with Tanabe Prosec 5's, Tanabe Medallion exhaust, Blue 35% tints, INGS kit, sound system and 20" step lip COR Wheels in Matte center. Add this one to the Miami list. Let me know what you think. Sorry about the images, but I am not the best photographer.

Your car is 2007? (you don't have the LED on the side mirrors) Did you change the front bumper to 08+? Personally I am not a fan of chrome...

Not one specifically... SPC makes a ball joint camber kit for the 1st gen IS. After some research, I found that the 1st gen IS shares the same Upper Suspension Arm as the 2nd gen IS and 3rd gen GS (see pics). I decided to buy the SPC ball joint kit and installed it with no issues. I did this 2 weeks ago and I have been happy camper since

Good find, and also wondering if any company makes Anti-Life kit or something like Energy polyurethane bushing for 2nd IS since 3rd GS shares the same part(blue circle)? it would improves handling and durability

How do you know that you now have normal spec camber?
