Hi, so i talked to a few members on here who have encouraged me to start a build thread.... so i decided to start a mini one hehe. This is my 8th car in about a year and looking to actually keep this one and really make it nice.

Recently bought a black is250 bone stock and already have been slowly trying to mod it and of course plan out my future mods/wishlist. So far I have purchased megan lps and thanks to (dro916 and PUREgs) they are now installed

My newest purchase was from a local member (MyIS350G) a gfx lip. So i am now starting to piece together the gfx kit and also looking into a s4play rear diffuser.

I have no order in what I'm trying to buy lol just going with it and as i see great deals on here.

this is what it looked like when i bought it



this is during the coilover install (PUREgs) sitting pretty for now SOON to be slammed and flush



UGH of course i had a issue and replaced all my brakes and rotors through lexus and without even thinking til it was to late to replace my 250 brakes with 350 brake kit

but i got to enjoy this new little lexus for a couple days





Soooo thats where i'm at so far, would love to hear any tips, advice, recommendations, deals haha basically open to everything in helping with my build.

Welcome to CL! Looks like the IS is coming along very nicely. kickin8 is correct, constantly check out the classifieds and vendor classifieds, you'll find great deals on items you might want. I purchased everything from other members and the vendors on the forum.
