Damn...5.0 like a boss! That thing looks sick and only going to get better. Congrats on the upgrade. I don't even want to know the type of numbers it will put down with headers and a tune.

Just ordered some Putco Jet Yellow fog lights from amazon-$27 Bucks w/2 day shipping with prime!

I am going to try and take some pics of the Interior/Puddle light LED's. The kit from precisionled looks sick and came with 4 interior trim tools! I don't know what the consensus on here uses, but this kit wins in my book.

I got every light option Blue except the Vanity LED's which I got white since my wife actually uses those. I also kinda forgot our License plate lights were LED and ordered those white on accident as well. Precision was kind enough to remind me the following day the IS-F does not need them and promptly gave me a refund those that option. Awesome company to deal with for sure!

I bought the Kit here http://www.precisionled.com/Lexus/Le...ypage.tpl.html

No problem, that's why I posted pics on here seeing as I haven't seen a USB on the graphite version yet.

thanks man!!! i love my rims 1000x more now they are all blacked out. I liked them before but i didnt LOVE them. Now i do!

For future plans, i want to start the system install, but im waiting on the Rockford Fosgate 3sixty.3 to come out...basicly it is for tapping into the OEM system and getting a clean signal out for aftermarket amps......among being one of the most powerful processors on the market. Its not JUST for OEM, its for any system......but it really shines when needing a clean signal out of a stock deck. I love the navi setup in the F so that is not coming out. Google 3sixty.2 to get an idea what it is (if you dont know) and imagine the .3 being 100x better, when it is released finally.

but ya, im thinking 2 or 4 10's in the trunk, a couple amps and upgraded mids/highs...im going to keep it ultra clean and classy looking. I will save the massive 30,000 watt head crusher for my other ride. This one will have ***** too but it will be super clean and stealth at the same time. At least thats the plan

Back in 1995 I was rolling a 1988 5.0 LX.. for about 5 years, until I special ordered my 2001 IS300

That thing hauled *** for its time... I broke high 12's all motor in the 1/4 mile with simple bolt ons.

It was a "Wolf in Sheep's clothing" ... Kinda like the IS-F ..

Nice man....sounds real nice. Can't wait to see when you start building that bad boy up. I need to do more research when it comes to audio. I just want a real strong 12 with the port to come through the hole in the backseat to the trunk. I don't think it's a bad idea. Not trying to wake up the block, just want around 1000W RMS in there. But that will have to wait as I decide what 12" to go with. I like the Alpine Type X but I had it in my STI and want something different. Probably 12W7.

Quick question ya'll....is the below thread the bread and butter for changing out fog light bulbs? Basically just says to cut the wheel one way all the way, undo a few clips on the fender liner and reach from there.
