Default SFP 2011 IS-F with slight mod (pix)

Hi,
First, I wanna say happy new year to every1... I'd been to this forum for 2 years now just enjoying reading and learning from you guys. You guys are awesome! I got my white 2011 IS-F last yr of October and I tell you it's been a blast driving this beast thru the canyons. I used to be an owner of a black 2008 IS-F stock with 25,000miles that I traded in for my 2011. You can really tell the big improvement of the handling of 2011 updates. I fell in love with this one especially the color combination. Now, this white 2011 is-f gave me the disease of modding! LOL. And funny thing is once you start modding it's hard to stop! Now, I am looking forward to mod my baby slowly from looks to performance. Again, I thank you guys for sharing your ideas and tips. May you guys have a wonderful year ahead Please excuse me for my iphone quality photo...

My current Mod: Tom's rear diffuser, front clear bra, LED interior lights and mirror puddle lamp, JDM window side visor, tint 40% formula1 pinnacle and Airblue 80% windshield. And I was able to keep my '08 wheels IMHO still the best looking stock wheels.

Special thanks to VIPautosalon for my diffuser and Nigel for my window side visor.

Jay

How are those dome lights in person? Do they get old after the 'wow' factor wears off? How bright are they? Where did you get them and how easy were they to install?

(on the fence about doing that)

@LBmtb

I had these lights installed for 3 month now. They are still as bright as day 1 I installed them. Interior installation are easy except the mirror puddle lamp light. You need to be extra careful taking off the side mirror to avoid cracking/breaking it. I bought them online from vendor ijdmtoy and v-led websites. I say go and do it bro. You'll love these lights. For me it's very helpful at night/ dark places. Good luck

@jbjones85

Thanks! oh yah white on white is a sick color combo! You can also see the lines better with the white ext. Plus the maintenance wise is a breeze to clean. I had a black one before and it's a pain to keep it clean. LOL

@RDIS250AWD

Thanks bro! I love Tom's rear diffuser!

Props looks great, but I would have stayed with the new rims.
Looking at the pics of the inside made me wanna order the LEDs for the dome lights. They are so dim stock

Congrats on the new ride! That *** with the Tom's is beautiful but that white interior looks cool at first but will show every spec of dirt and scratch but maybe im jealous.......Also your 08 wheels look good but i would have stayed with the new 11's. Good luck with modding and enjoy her!!!

can you give me more info on the LED's that you used for the puddle lights and for the doors? I have always thought they were a little weak and would like to spice them up.

Looking nice! SFP on white is a clean look, a definite change from the Obsidian you used to have. Black is not as easy to keep clean, nor are the lines of the car easily seen. Good thinking on keeping the 08 wheels, too.

Nice job on the mods
