Yup, looks like the old owner got the head lamps as optional. I got my 2020 is blackline edition new at the time and it had black mirrors and wood trim steering wheels and darker rims. I do miss this model, but I am happy I got the 2022 is350 DHP which I probably would trade in my 2020 if I didnt total it lol.

Sold my 986 Porsche Boxster for my 2016 IS300 AWD, and as my daily I love it. First couple months, I put a remark axle-back (bought the quad tip used but sawed it off and put a single exit tip), tansowerkz tail lights, and a set of SSRs. Gonna lower on springs and try to make some more power next spring.

Feels like it's been forever since I washed the car, and it also feels like it's been forever since we've had fall weather this nice. Have a great day, everyone.

Congrats, I think red will look great with the silver. Still loving my Iridium as well.

Thanks! I'm torn between blue and red. Is it too cheesy to get blue and red on either side haha

lol! I would say blue is somewhat controversial. I mentioned blue as a possible caliper color to a friend and he said "only if you want to ruin it".

I think it strongly depends on what kind of blue we're talking about. An electric blue would look pretty weird even if both sides matched, unless you are doing some sort of themed build where that color is a feature.

One or the other. But I think an OEM blue (like the RCF/GSF calipers) would look great against Iridium.

Looks super cool! I started considering blue after I looked at RCF and some corvette blue calipers. Usually I would just go red without second thought
