Daren here. Today was a big day. I picked up my 2011 IS F and joined this forum. It has a bit over 44k miles. So far, I've put a whopping 70 miles on it (Albuquerque - Los Alamos). Any other IS F owners in NM?

I was playing around with iPhone panorama mode last night.. This shot makes the garage look so much more spacious!

Here's a pic from my drive on Monday. The Los Alamos area is perfect for having fun in the IS F. Lots of curvy mountain roads. In fact, one of the fun ones begins as I exit my neighborhood. While waiting for my IS F to arrive, I cleaned the garage. Luckily, I was able to get my IS F into the garage to avoid today's snowstorm.

Thanks! I believe it is Corvette/Brembo yellow, with just a little bit of flake. Ebay brembo stickers. Had a local shop paint them.

Hi mind sharing about how much a repaint on calipers should run? Looks great, a local shop recommended I don't paint mine due to heat and to look into powder coating and I lost interest with that.

Anything in particular to look for?

I like Gram Lights. Wish they offered more 19’s in the good styles though.

I had a local shop named APAC in MD do it. They specialize in a wide variety of paint/bodywork/aftermarket modifications, most recently a few GTR's and R8 and G37 with Liberty Walk kits.

They've painted calipers on 3 cars for me now(G37 included attached), on the car(not powder coated) and I have not had any issues. Powder coating I'd actually prefer to stay away from as 3 guys in my local club had theirs powder coated and paid much more and had to rebuild them and all had squeaky brakes issues in the end. I paid $250 every time.
