Default Need Feedback: My first car and hard work
]I always wanted a Lexus IS 2nd gen Model since I was in High School. After high school, I joined the Army National Guard and I deployed after basic training. I just finish my deployment in Europe and I decided to get the IS 2nd Gen because it's all I dream about. I bought the car a week after my deployment done which was around the first week of October. It was all stock and I worked alot and cherish it. This is what I got on it so far and still in progress. I want to know what do you guys think.

April 22, 2012- adding more pictures at Import Alliance in Atlanta Motor Speedway

ADDING RECENT PICTURES!

August 11, 2013 added more from SouthrnFresh and later that night at QuikTrip

Lower it for sure. And not digging the ***** ****, but if you like it then that's cool.

Looks good so far. What other plans do you have for it? I was thinking some red outs, exhaust, and intake.

Not feeling the shift ****, but if you like it, that is all that matters. Is it hard to shift with such a tall shift ****?

The shift **** looks cool but doesnt seem too practical, especially with a manual

Any other mod plans?

I'm planning to get Tom or vertex full lip kit one day, and the led headlights like the 2012 headlights for now. What are red outs? Some ideas on kind of exhaust and intakes?

It's actually easier to shift for me. I heard a lot of drifters use tall shift ****

looks good so far, i like the shift **** but not for a manual car, i have a manual i wouldn't be able to shift gears with that. Are those work meisters? Need to be lowered, maybe a front lip or full lip kit.
