I need direction on my Lexus IS350

This car turns three years old on July 12th.

It has 10,000 miles and still looks like new.

However, I'm bored with it. It's my daily driver so I'm looking to make some changes.

I'm thinking a big old turbo, maybe some Forgline wheels, or some ghosted gray flames on the hood.

Thoughts??




PS. I need to take my mind of Josh.

yeah the first two, wheels and turbo. Decals are for the weak... especially on something that has that jdm look. Lower that sumbitch too!

Please do not put ghost flames on this car!!! it is not a race car it is a VIP car. if i was you i would just change the wheels and drop it a little. i really like the lexus and how if came off the lot but a TURBO would be nice! GL with the is350

No flames please!!! But a turbo could be cool and add some excitement..And 10k on a DD thats 3 years old bravo to you..U must have alot of DD's or work from home haha!!!!

Maybe I'm strange.... but I'm more for the stealth look. I don't like chrome.... I think it's been totally worn out on cars. I think that even a black car with black trim it the way to go.
But what I have recently discovered that looks ral good on black cars it when you put some dark bronze wheels on it with black trim and matching dark bronze emblems. I think that would look great on this car.

I am also wierd I guess because I THINK..... that a turbo on a daily driver is just asking for drivability problems down the road. I would put a supercharger on it

I was thinking the same thing Matt, as far as reliability/drivability problems.

OP, is there any way you might be able to sell it for/trade it in for an IS-F?

Since I sold the 240 and am bored just give me a budget and I'll build it for you! Some SSR MS1's in Flat Black with a polished lip and a nice turbo setup sound very sweet, and obviously lower the car.

Here is the best looking is350 I have ever seen, should give you good guidance on how to make it look clean.

Mag blue TE-37's would look beautiful on your black car. My vote for a DD is a lip kit, wheels, and lower it. If you like the chrome look, enkei rpf01's like I had my g35 are a black chrome and look good on black. The enkei's are also about half the price of the te37's.

Good call the Mag blue TE's would look sweet.

I'm with Jake on this one. Daily Drivers cease to be that when we start going too crazy. Wheels, Lip Kit, and a small drop. How about some creature comforts (if there's any not already included on a Lexus)?

I'd definitely try to keep that VIP theme going. We sure don't see much of that in Billings.

If I had a Lexus, it would look similar to this. I love the modern satin silver color and the black wheels. This one even has accents that would match your Vette! I wouldnt tell anyone if you copied this car....

IS-F is the way to go.

Sweet looking cars!!! Wow.

Here's the problem. I still have to be able to drive it in the snow. I've got winter snow wheels/tires and they work great.

I like the looks of that supercharger. Wow!!

Thanks for the tips fellas.

I think most of the miles are back and forth from the airport.

Shit just buy this Son of a bitch. God of all things LEXUS.
