Thanks guys!!

It IS dropped! It's a 1-finger gap all around the car, but for some reason a couple of the pictures look like the car is at a stock height..haha

wow bro, mad props to you for having such a clean asssssssss white is350


one of a kind


hey, do you mind to share what kind of exhaust are you running?

does it help the car really breath? or more like for looks


the only reason why im asking because- i used to have a 580 whp evo, and a exhaust was a must on a turbo car


thanks man

It's the one HKS made for Lexus, they don't make it anymore but it looks EXACTLY like the F-Sport exhaust, the only difference is it's SLIGHTLY quieter. I bought it for the sound, it makes pretty much no difference in power. In turbo applications you need to have the correct downpipe and exhaust system sizing but for these low HP applications like my IS250 it's not worth spending on a full catback exhaust, that's why I got these. They're just muffler replacements in the rear. This exhaust system is pretty much the only one that doesn't drone while at highway speeds and on hill climbs that require moderate throttle. Thanks a lot bro!
