Talking my baby need opinions! posted up some pics

i got a 350 a couple weeks back and have picking cl and my.is clean for ideas to make my 2is mine. i have finally decided to not change springs and sways at the momment because in a few years im gunna pull the trigger on an F. i was also wondering if anyone else has come to this conclussion or just me. so far i have done a couple little things to make this stand out to me. i want to know what else i should do for the time being until i have an F in my garage. here are some pics of my car
'07 is350 matador red

Pics of rear? and nice color, i think u should do wheels or drop it if your going to have it for a couple more years..

Like the tinted tails and heads but i think since u did those u should do fogs also

why would you not put smoke overlays over the fog lights when you have them on your headlights? that looks too odd. me no likes.

Not feeling the headlights, looks like your car has a bad case of eye infection.

Even if you are planning on keeping your IS for a just few years, I would still drop it and install sways.

He said in a few years, so I think I would mildly mod it in the mean time

drop it ans spacers, the stock wheels look great with a drop and spacers, then save up for wheels. yo i like the unique color, you have something unique to work with
