IS-F rear exhaust for the IS350?????
Ive got the IS350 and was wondering if anyone thinks or even knows if any afermarket companys will offer dat setup or not? I see it as insted of spending the extra cash and alot of extra cash for the IS-F i cud jus put the rear exhaust to complete my car. Lemme no what u guys think.

I think putting IS-F parts on your IS like that is like buying a V6 Mustang and putting GT emblems on it-
Thats just my opinion though- Unless you do the entire body kit, I dont think just the exhaust will look right- or at least with out the new rear valance-
I think the bumper cut outs on are car are too small right now to support the dual tips- which means somebody needs to make a bumper as well-
Im sure with time kits will be made available to make your ISX50 look like an F- and people will buy them- but I dont think its right-
Its kind of like the whole Type R sticker thing- but Im kind of an old white guy so what do I know? LOL

Do you guys REALLY think that Lexus is gonna let someone produce aftermarket parts of the IS-F for the IS250/IS350 to loose share for the IS-F?!?!? I mean, it hasn't even come out yet........

Since when does Lexus have control over what the aftermarket does???? A similar dual exhaust tip, along with a similar body kit will more than likely be produced..... Lexus can't do anything about it.

They will offer goodies to someone with a real one. Hell, you probably would only need an IS of some sort to figure out attachment points. It's really not as difficult as you think. Not to difficult to reverse engineer a bumper.

I guarantee you guys..we will start seeing a lot of civic ex's and pontiac sunfire's sporting this exhaust along with the ISF samurai bookshelf body kit real soon. "The guy at the body shop said it adds like 10 horsepower." "Guaranteed to drastically improve your 0-10mph acceleration"
