Yeah I can get wheels but I gotta do one thing at a time, control arm first, coils and then rims, gotta save up! As for the light, you can always just buy a 6000k for your low beams, it's like 60 bucks I believe. The h11 is for the fogs on the 2011, you can change it to a hid kit from ddm.

Got my rear spoiler and roof spoiler yesterday and just installed

Love the look of both and was happy with the SGM color match and overall quality of the spoilers. Install was simple with the 3M tape that came with the spoilers and am very pleased with this simple mod !

Nice ride! You have a rare model with the larger rims, but no LED lights. ENJOY!

Thanks guys !! The optional larger 18" rims was a priority for me in searching for the car and i told my salesman this !! I had no interest in getting the 17" rims and then start looking for new and larger rims !

On a side note i'm actually don't mind not having the lighting package though the HIDS would had been nice i prefer not to have the LEDs ?!

Thanks again

One thing I keep going back on and looking at is the wheel gap. It appears the gap is bigger here than on any other 18" model I've seen. That gets me thinking how this could be since it's the same stock 18" rims offered on other IS's with the option package.
Any thoughts or clues?

it's brand new and car hasn't settled yet....only thing i can think of. they always look like SUV's when new. I'm dealing with that right now.
