This pict was done with that filter heavy with a lot of masking & a ton of layers...Also shot this with the really wide angle lens(I was standing about 2 feet from my car when i took the photo)...I kinda like the perspective..

Yeah that is really cool! i like how the background looks sepia, whereas the car is in color! very nice.

are you using CS3? or 4?

What springs are you using to lower your IS? Is was thinking of the F-sport springs. What do you think?

Cool. How much would it cost for someone to perform professionally? My lexus Dealership told me $950 for labor. Plus told me that I would need an alignment check for $129. Bull or No Bull?

i dont know about Tein's performance on our 2IS compared with F-sport..i hope someone can share their experience. Im scared that i might lose the Lexus comfort f i go with Tein, but i knw F-sport definitely about the same as stock. Just slight improvement without affecting the comfort.

NO MAN, f-sports are very stiff, it will affect the comfort.
