New around here
Hey guys just introducing myself around here. Just bought a preowned 2013 GS350 F-Sport Starfire back in January with 34k on the odometer. Think I got a decent deal and I'm pretty happy with it. I have been lurking since then just soaking up all the knowledge around here. I usualy don't post because I usually search and find all the answers to my questions or problems. I work for a Toyota dealership parts department so I have access to a lot of knowledge through the technicians resource TIS (Toyota Information System) so if you guys need wiring schematics, diagrams, part numbers or pricing just hit me up.
Ive done just a few minor mods and have a few more planned. Tell me what you guys think. First bath
Didn't want to drill to add front plates so bought a cheap eBay bracket and it worked perfectly.
Side shot of how it attaches. Sorry about the bugs. My wife drives 80 miles a day to work. Seems pretty sturdy and she drives pretty fast.
Painted the calipers with a color changing paint.
After painting my wife made me an F-Sport vinyl logo for the calipers. She's into scrap booking and has a small vinyl plotter so that comes in handy for custom stickers!
Before trunk light upgrade
After upgrade. Huge difference! I just used a cheap LED strip from a parts store. I seen someone around here had did this so that's where I got the idea from.
I have a few more things I wanna do like a front lip and maybe some Tanabe springs but I'll have to see. Thanks for looking guys and hope to be posting here more and learning a whole lot more from everyone.

Rear lip with rare JDM spoiler
eBay lip kit ftw
Needs lowered...bad! Still waiting to do that
Haha yes! Good eye there. That's my daily driver for work. I've done a few things to it as well and I used to frequent the Acura forums from time to time. Here's a few pics of it.

Thank you, Im in central Texas just north of Austin. You?
Yeah actually I bought the car extremely cheap because of the dreaded transmission issues this year suffered from. I immediately purchased a replacement but out of a v6 2007 accord after doing research and thanks in part to help from the Acura forums. It's been running strong ever since for the last 5 years. It's been very reliable.

Thanks guys...definitely want a front lip and would like to lower it but my wife is opposed to lowering because of the distance she drives and is afraid to scrape. We'll see...
