Looking for cosmetic mods (int/ext). Show off and give me some ideas!
Long story short... I came within seconds of trading my IS350 in yesterday on a C350. Decided to keep the car, so the $2500 that I was going to put down I have decided to put into the car. Im looking for some interior and exterior mods...( spoilers, rims, LED headlights/tail lights etc...) Here is your chance to post some pictures and show off, Id like to see what things look like. Thanks -Steven

Everyone is correct, $2500 will not get you much, but if you are smart about it, you can stretch it out and get enough to keep you interested and satisfied with your IS for the time being.
For starters, you should always check out the classifieds section and vendors section of this forum. You will find great deals on new and used parts. Nothing wrong with used or second hand parts as long as they are in good working condition.
If I had $2500 to spend, I would get springs or coil overs, intake, exhaust, sway bars, HIDs, tint, and JDM visors. That might be close to $2500 or a little over. Then after I would get rims, body kit, roof spoiler, LED interior etc.
Good luck.

Brutally honest arn't ya'll... haha
I have seen 19' in IS-F rims for 695.00 on ebay, not OEM but does not bother me...
Initial G The Car already has HID's.. We're you thinking of something different?
I like the idea of tint for the tail lights, I have also found some front spoilers for as low as 350 or so....
2500 dollars is just a start, I was not going to keep the car so I had decided to not put any money into it. But since I have decided to keep it I think I am going to spend a little money on it!! Excited about my options!! Im not really looking for any performance MODs or exhaust, im very pleased with the car being stock!

I'm used to authentic parts:
Wheels $2k+
full kit: $3k+
Full exhaust: $1k+
headers: ~$750
headlights: $1300 if they're still on sale
Tires: $750+
coils: $650+
OR
Springs: $200
Can't get many major items to start off if you support real parts. Just saying. But plenty of options to get your car to not look stock with $2500
