I only notice this when I am really close to the car. The average person would never notice.

same here. well I intended on paying extra for them if I had to, but they kinda ended up just being a throw-in for me to buy the car. but IMO the lobster claws are better than the '08 liquid metal rims. the 06-07 rims I always thought looked the best, but they're obviously so common now.

congrats on the new ride! welcome to the '09 obsidian club!!

Nice, Obsidian is the sex!
Did you have anything done to the suspension, and what did you drive before to compare it to?

Congrats on the car!

I remember you posting in my thread when I asked about the IS350 and its availability. Turns out theres no more Black Sapphire. Only option IS Obsidian. They are willing to toss in extras for me to take the car... I'm still thinking... Hope to join the club soon!!!

Hey man! My car is completely stock but it handles better than the 08 that I test drove at the dealer for 10 minutes. Family has the 2009 sti, 2008 is250, e55 amg 2008, and now the is350 2009. The is350 handles almost as well as the sti imo.

i don't think there is anything wrong with the lobster claw, i actually find it better looking than my 06 rims now.
