congrats on the car. don't forget to get the joe z intake pipe or the f-sport intake while you're at it!
haha, no wing for me. just an oem style spoiler. I'm not real sure i want to go the intake route. I'm kind of tired of dealing with warranty issues. maybe on the F-Sport.. as long as they dont give me too much hell for installing it myself.

Default congrads bro

whats up man, i'm glad that you ended up getting an 08 IS350. It's looks great. Black on Black, just like mine. I can't wait to see your mods after which I'm sure I'll start as well. Could you do me a favor and post pics of your tint whenever you get it done. I've been thinking about tinting for a couple of weeks now but haven't really had the time. After viewing the tint on your IS, I'm sure it'll sway me to get it done sooner rather than later. anyway man, welcome and keep us updated on the mods.

Mine was stage 2.. Cobb accessport alone puts the car closer to 300.. all the mods together pushed it well over 300. I was running high 12's in 1/4 mile.

see the link for more info.

I'm actually on the west side (covedale). Performance had to do a dealer trade with Germaine up in Columbus for this one.. Perf nor Rivercenter has a 350 that I liked in stock. =/

beautiful car bro, it looks very similiar to somebody else i know . I'm also thinking of doing the Nav hack.. but i'm not very patient when it comes to removing clips and interior bits lol. Knowing me I'd break something so let me know how easy it really is.

hey man, great looking car, congratulations, and welcome to the community =) you've got a great list of mods coming up and i can't wait tosee what you do with your new baby.. just on a tip for those tinted taillights vs redouts... try the redouts first and see how you like them, it'll cost you 20$ tops and 15 minutes to put them on, and i think they look a whole lot better on the dark car. the blacks and blues with redsouts are sexy, and the whites and silvers with blacked out tints looks good (of course, this is in my opinion), and if you dont like the red outs, or think you'll like the tints more, it'll be easier to take off the redout and put on the tint film than it would be the other way around

good luck with everything and again welcome =)
