Congrats and welcome to the forum. I can't tell from the pictures but I would start with tint. Front lip, and a drop. From there It all depends on what direction you want to go.

When you mod your car, make sure you rethink what youre aiming for. I've spent a lot time going through that VIP thing. It aint for me...

BTW welcome to CL

Can anyone tell me what year the IS's came with those wheels as well as the model which they came bundled with?

I love these wheels and if only you lived in BC, i would definitely pick these up... :/

I just got my tint done , 35% front driver and passenger , 35% rear window , and 5% rear doors . I'm thinking of getting the rear window visor . opinions ? Yeah I'm on Oahu . I want speed , not really trying to go for VIP . Which would be easier to go for ? I was going to take off the front bracket but theres four huge holes if I do . Thanks everyone for the warm welcome .
