Scored a PPE midpipe for what i think was great deal. Not sure how loud it's going to be paired with the borla axleback, but we'll give it a try. I don't think I've seen or heard anyone with this setup. Might be the first?
Not sure when I'll install it, might have to wait til it's not a billion degrees in AZ.
Looking crisp! With my luck, I really should consider these. I've been sand-blasted a couple times already. Not a fun surprise when washing the car.
Yeah they definitely help with keeping the space behind the wheels clean. I'm super lazy and don't clean my car often, so they help it not look that filthy 😅

Every now and then I’d hear the ting-ting-ting of rocks hitting the guards and I’d laugh! 😂 That’s right, I’ve foiled your asses. 😈
The color of the red stitching on the shifter looks darker than the red on the boot in those photos but I can confirm they are actually the same. in case anyone OCD like me is wondering:
I ordered mine from amayama along with RCF paddle shifters
Any particular year or part number that fits on our IS500s? Whats different about them?
Every year is the same. They feel slightly different since they have a metal coating on them, and they're slightly taller and wider. Visually on the wheel, they look almost identical, but the extra width feels a little better when shifting in manual mode. Not that drastic of a difference if I'm being honest 😅. I mostly did it because the + and - logos are blue 🤣
Threw on the first install on my "not a project car daily driver" by fitting the 15mm/20mm spacers. Dramatically fixes the sunken in look of the stock setup. Seeing the wheel openings filled better width wised does make me want to lower the car even more now to solve the tire to fender gap issue. Just hate to give up too much in the way of driveability and ground clearance. Looking at Eibach and Swift right now. Seems Swift may be the way to go with a milder drop.
Side note, im used to 300mm wide tires at all 4 corners out od my sporty cars so these little 235's on the front are absolutely adorable.
