Hello All,

Joined CL not too long ago and got my IS250 in July. So far I got the basics... Intake, exhaust, and some springs. Actually got the springs installed today at Autofashion in Miramar and I must say they do some quality work and they're all a bunch of cool cats. They gave me a really good deal on the install and they make sure you leave happy. Big ups to Freddie and the homies at Autofashion! I'll post some pics when I have the chance later this week. I'm happy with the drop and I can't wait to see how it'll look once they settle. I got the NF210 (TNF113) installed and I'm happy with the results! I'll post pics ASAP...

As promised, here are the pics! I just snapped a few pics during my lunch break.

As for the ride of the springs, they feel just like stock but the steering feels a little more solid. I took it on the 15N on ramp from Mira Mesa Blvd and just smashed the gas pedal. I giggled like a little girl, haha! I love the new feel and handle.
