What's your suggestion for my 350?
Hola CL members and visitors, on the journey to modding the body of my 350 I want to get some suggestions from anyone interested on what you think would be SICK to add to the LEX. The engine is already highly modded and am only looking to for outward appearance items now. Thanks all.
Please write the full name of what you are suggesting I may not understand abbreviations or what someone thinks is implied.
Thanks for the opinions cheers. When I leave work I will add a better pict and also a rear view. I know how you all like the view from the back...

@ juvi Budget I would say willing to put in minimum 5k - 7k. Besides the fact I'm thinking I should have just waited and got the ISF. For coilovers which do you recommend? And will this destroy my ride quality?
Thanks

I think it's a touchy subject because you really can't mod the car that much. So when you say "heavily modded" people's reaction will be "BS!" but it's all relative. But I digress!
Depends on your taste.
I would lower it on coils and get some wheels. Probably a silver finish, not a fan of chrome, but that's me, then go from there. No need to buy everything now, you might change your mind once it progresses.
Remember. Your car, do what you think looks good.

As for performance mods, the same 99% everyone else has done with add ons/tuning my buddies have done. (Not sure why this is a touchy subject) If you want to spend $15K on performance you could do the same. Biggest HP gain so far as previously stated in another thread to "heyarms" is the bottle. Nuff said. Tons of money for limited performance =My IS. Back to topic.

For example, the main things people do for performance to the IS are intake, exhaust, and headers. All told I'm thinking this would be at most $2000-2500. Some people have thrown on expensive superchargers, which ranged from $5000-7000. So at most that's $9500 or so. You say you have NOS, and I don't know what that system costs, but I imagine less than $5500. So what could you have done to get all the way up to $15,000?
Sharing this info I know would be hugely appreciated by the CL community, which is always looking for ways to tune and mod the IS.
Lastly, what was your reasoning for settling on the IS350 if you had an additional $15K + $7K = $22K to spend on modding it? I settled on my car because I had $25K to spend on a car. If I had that plus another $22K to spend on a car I'd have been looking IS-F, M3, etc.. So I'm just curious about your decision process.
