Dude, even if he was talking about your car, your ish is sick hands down! Like I stated before the white colors that Lexus produce now are very hard to match. And the JDM kits available fit like a glove.

Haha, thanks! However, the fact is that the Tom's rear kit actually DOESN'T fit quite like a glove; the corners are kind of too round for the IS's actual bumper. Just thought he might be referring to that :]

I dont know why its seems like nobody is putting racing rims on their IS or even rims that might IMPROVE performance or decrease weight overall.

Hey KR Inspire,

Your IS is featured in the premier issue of Traction magazine. Very nice work!
