ok, Thanks to everyone... and ya, i poll should have been the way to go.. I loved the input though. My heart says to drop it, and HIDS/Spoilers next. I have seen variations, some extremely lower than the others. I would want to drop it just a few inches, nothing too Extreme where the wheel is getting swallowed in the well. Can anyone offer some insight on exact coilovers to get? I heard its not that hard to install, and was thinking of doing it myself.

Dropping it an inch isn't really uncommon, as the F-Sport springs only drop about an inch all around. When you drop, definitely look into sways as you are already modding the suspension and I've heard a lot of good things about sways with the RWD IS.

I am under the impression that eibach or f sport springs might be my best bet, with that in mind, ill probably go with F sport, just because its made for the lexus. My wheels are 18 inch stock, and I was wondering if the F sport tires are the same size. my concern would be in the f sport springs dropping my car too far.

If you dont want to get coils and really want a conservative drop, get H&R springs.

Unless you want a VERY minimal drop of stay away from F Sport. I also suggest H&R or Eibach's. coils run $800 the cheapest to over 1K. If say for the money you want to spend and the drop you want to go, get the springs I recommend. If you search you can find pics of cars with those springs.

Ok, ive done a bit more research, and I will most likely get the H&R or Eibachs..because:
F-Sport Springs on a non F-Sport setup make the ride VERY rough, to the point of some CL members stating it moves their headlight bulbs around. From what you all have said, Eibach and H&R's are the way to go for springs. If i wanted to spend 1k id get coilovers, but that is just not an option at this point. I do want a conservative drop, but not to the point where I barely notice it. SO!
Between the H&R's, and Eibachs, which one gives the lowest drop?? That will be what I will purchase, assuming both wont drop my car a relatively over-extensive amount.

thank you all again for helping me with my decision. This has been extremely helpful!
