Badges were bought. Rear IS500 badge was purchased as a satin black badge then painted red. Calipers were done with red 2 part caliper paint from G2 Caliper Paint. Lexus emblems were vinyl overlays from Pinterest.
Thanks! It’s on Swift springs with Bonoos 15mm spacers all the way around. You can’t see it but I also changed out the lower control bushings to the ones from the GSF while I was at it.
Saw a guy with a Grecian Water w/White IS350 at C&O once and those seats were stained beyond belief! ::shudder:: I think folks need to wrap those in the plastic our Grannies used back in the day. 😁
We kept the parchment seats in our RX spotless for over 8 years. Just did leather conditioner once a month and the wife sat on a towel if she was sweaty, dirty, or in brand new jeans. Still a lot more work than black!

LOL... MY MAN... Making the wife sit on a TOWEL in his car (if sweaty) hahah... Do what you have to do to keep it clean for sure. In my LE, I have a rule w/ drinks... Water or Sprite/Clear Soda's only because I don't know if the Suede will stain easy or not...and I don't want to find out either
I have the white interior with incognito exterior, and I have no issues with the White getting dirty even with jeans. I also put CQuartz leather 2.0 on the seats to protect them, which works great!
if you like the color like I do, go for it, but Hennessey will charge you an arm and a leg in fees. I went out of state and saved almost $3000 over Hennessey.’s pricing.

LOL when she saw how cleaned the seats stayed she was all for it. Now she puts towels on the arm rest too! Slowly changing her into a car girl lol
I've had my Atomic and White IS500 for almost 2 years and 14k miles now. Not a single mark or blemish. The only thing I do is put down a towel when I'm either sweating or going to sweat (on the way to the gym for example). No conditioners, no special cleaning. I don't think it's as delicate as it looks, which is great because it looks downright amazing IMO. Oh, and of course no food or drinks allowed in my car other than plain water (I would do that regardless of seat color though).
