What up everyone. Im new to the forum and just got my silver 2009 is250 a couple days ago. Manual trans RWD on oem 18s. Spoiler with black interior. Not 100 percent sure on what brand of mods are on it but I know it has an after market intake, headers, high flow cats, muffler. I also just picked up some godspeed coils. They should be coming in the mail sometime this week. Ill add some pics when I install them. I used to drive an 2001 gs300 before (made me fall in love with lexus) but I wanted something more fun to drive. Glad i came up on the is.
I look forward to choppin it up with everyone and seeing some dope rides. Theres not many car heads where I live so Im gonna be on here a lot lol.

2009 Lexus is 250
Hello all, I am new to lexus (my entire family is BMW).
I have a dark grey is250 and am wondering if anyone has suggestions for brand of tail lights
I would like a smoke look to match my car color but not too black where it limits visibility (tints)
any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I see a lot of options for the 06-08 model but mine is an 09. wondering if those can be used as well?

Leaving BMWs
What's up everyone? Just purchased an '08 IS250 AWD with 59k miles. Previously had an E46 ZHP. E46 Sport and Volvo S60 before. I'm done with BMW reliability issues and repairs! ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
No carbon build up issues. Minor underbody rust from it's time on the EC, so it's getting a spray. Also right headlight flickers: dealership is taking care of that. All in all excited to upgrade to something fun, reliable, and AWD!

Hi everyone! Got a new car last summer. The story is funny as I did quite a long ride to test drive a 2008 250 RWD. The ad had crappy picture and nothing special to mention. Was not that interested but it was an opportunity to test drive the car that I was planning to buy this year.
Got there and found that the car has almost everything that was into the F-Sport catalog including the front BBK, lowered spring and shock,19 inch forged and staggered F-Sport wheel, intake, anti-roll bar, and undercar brace. Everything got real quick and I've taken this car home. I've a lot of project. LSD first then a modified bumper base on a 2014 F-Sport with a custom aluminium lip made of several layer of aluminium and riveted with solid rivet. Here some pictures:

Accolade Check in!
Lexus owners (i.e. people with great taste in cars),
My name is Cole. I go by a few other names depending on where I am working.

Hi from Arizona
Hi,
My name is Keri - I am from AZ.
I just switched from Mercedes to Lexus. I went with the 2011 IS350 - FSport
It is Black, like my soul. HAHAH JK with Black interior. All Black Everything.
Just had 25 hours of detailing done to it. Clay wax, buffing, a little color sanding and also AMMO Skin applied to it. The paint is so sleek and slick now.
I am really enjoying it and hope to upgrade it in a few years, but I am loving this car so far.
It does have the clear bra on the front and back bumpers
I look forward to meeting and particpating in this forum!
