Default Formal Intro, Hello!
Hello, my name is Justen. I was planning on doing a photshoot today for this thread, but long story short: my front passenger tire came into contact with my outer fender in a big way and body work is going to be necessary

The sun is about to go into hiding here in Oregon, so here are a few pics I snapped yesterday with my iPhone. The car is a bit dusty, especially the wheels.

Specs: 2008 IS350 / luxury package / ML / tv navi bypass kit / lexus HKS exhaust / GFX front+rear / led mirrors / red-outs / BC coilovers / 30% tint / Garax 6000K lows / Xenon Depot 6000k fogs / PIAA plasma highs / drl's disabled / 6000k V-Led everything / LS460 doorcup led's & locks / upgraded factory alarm / TSW nurburgrings 19x8.5 +35, 19x9.5 +40 / Nitto Invo 235-35-19, 275-30-19 / F-sport lugs / silver "Lexus" caliper decals

Nice drop. Good start. Hope you get your fender fixed.

The pics are too sharp for my eyes!

can you post more pictures on the rims? Those are the exact rims I was thinking about purchasing except in a gunmetal color! Also, how did you get the L center caps on?
