Yeah you have to be careful, I got it on my leather a few times but i rubbed it off with a little bit of water or alcohol or if it was small i just left it lol. Go for it man, I love having the red stitching lol. Not sure how it'll work on pre 09s though. 09+ has white stitching so it soaks in dye/sharpie easily lol.

Well didn't bother to take a picture of the stock IS350 when I planned to get f-sport equipment the next day, so I pulled a similar TP IS350 that I found on google


Now Here is a photo of fully F-sport equipped IS350. (Just no cf engine cover )



Lastly here is my most updated picture with replacing the f-sport springs and shocks to JIC Magic Coilovers
6000k low beams, 8000k fogs, 7000k high beams, 194 led white city lights, f-tails, jdm window visors
Also, I know a bit controversial but please no flaming 7000k CCFL halos

hahaha the f-sport suspension was great, but wanted to go much lower

and speaking of JICs, it was an upgrade in lowering AND the ride feeling as well
