Default New Houston BS F owner!

I did 3 months of research and shopping on a G37 and then end up with an IS-F! Oh well, I'm still pretty new to the mods and I know they're heckkkkkk more $$$ than the G mods. So please help me out here!

Thanks guys! Looking forward to meeting ya'll!

Here are my mod plans in order:

Smoked tail lights (please pick one for me, I have no idea which is better)
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/LEXUS...12127005r14727

or

http://aircraftpaintprotection.net/a...49f64ffb3d0106

Radar? (I need something to protect me from cops, my first time buying this , need some advices!)

HID headlights/foglights or angel eyes (6k blue-ish? I have no idea where to get this as well and I'm a noob at this)

35% tint

Joe Z intake/exhaust (I know so far, this is the best for the IS-F)

20" Wheels (I've heard some stories on the IS-F's hard suspension, please guide me on this!)

Man, forgive if I'm a noob (but that's that whole point of this forum)

Thanks guys!

Congrats on the new "F". I have had mine for a little over a year. For a while there I thought that I would be the only one in Houston with the "F". I know that Peter (houstonT) has had his for some time also, now there are three new members in one week from this area.

Have the Joe Z exhaust and Intake. Really not interested in 20" at this time, have 18" BFB Drag Radials.

For your information, I will be at Peter's Tx2k9 event on Thursday at MSR in Angleton and then at LoneStar Raceway in Sealy over the weekend. There will be Dyno runs on Friday, Drags on Saturday, and then 60-130 timed runs on Sunday.

Beautiful car and color. Just make sure you take extra good care of those white seats

anson89,

My wife has a 2008 Montego Blue Metallic BMW 335i convertible. Looks like you like blue cars. I have the Matador Red Mica ISF.

I'm still looking around, bought some overlays for my tails
Still deciding on either VLEDs or AAC/Oracle for my DRLs, waiting on HKS or Greddy to make an exhaust/intake. Not really into that American aftermarket stuff, no offense, the Joe Z is a great product but I'm sticking with the Japs!
