You come a long way, my dawg. All that sweat and dedication poured into the whip beared fruit. The time is near for a different kind of air like we said.
Wow! Your car looks AMAZING! How long did it take you to complete everything? I just recently joined the iS family a few months ago and I love my car. I’m thinking of doing some light modifications as well, nothing like yours but a few. I enjoyed watching this. Good job! 👍🏽
Thank you I appreciate it. I started modifying it back in 2019 but I did it slowly. I wanted that OEM+ look. Welcome to the IS family, do you have the 2nd generation IS or 3rd gen?
I’ve watched all of your content, and I remember all of these vids. Man you actually motivated me to do some small mods to my 2012 IS 350. I say small mods, but they’ve made a huge difference! I’ve had the F-Sport sway bars and cold air intake installed, and I was going to get the Vland taillights, but I figure that most IS owners had them. So I decided to get the HC Motion V1 taillights instead. I also had my suspension dropped an inch all around on some Tein Flex Z coilovers. Hey man, great build!!! Please keep the content coming!!!
I love my Lexus IS. The only thing that I dislike? It’s not a 350 but a 250! Oh well. I don’t want to shelf out thousands for a 2is 350. The engine on mine only has 134k miles and still runs great after I cleaned up some carbon buildup. Overall still a great car I don’t intend to sell soon. Your 350 is magnificent. Maybe you’ll change your mind and keep it.
I had an IS250 for three months then I sold it and bought my IS350. That car was a lot smoother than the IS350. And thank you, I wanted to keep it but sometimes we have to make changes.
I don’t think so and I installed f sport lowering springs which is lexus oem parts. People run coilovers on these cars with no problems. Although they can go bad if you slam the car to the ground without doing any other adjustments.
Lexus has discontinued all the f sport accessories for 2IS but some dealers still have them in stock but not much. I guess 2IS is getting old so Lexus decided to stop making those parts. Chassis brace and sway bars are the hardest to find.
I believe your IS is a long term keeper, if you absolutely want next generation technology then well understood.. RR Racing supercharger with this and it's a wrap! Haha
Awesome fucking job man!! If there is ANYTHING I didn't like, was the BMW colors on the steering wheel 😅😅 haha But I'm willing to pretend I didn't see that, because this is such an awesome build!
Thank you. 😂 the orange color is a Lexus color named Molten Pearl 4W7, they use it on RCF, GSF even in the new IS500. It looks similar to the BMW one for sure.
@@elijahperez3764 They should work perfectly fine as long as you don’t go with aggressive set up or big 20 inch wheels. 19x8.5 front 19x9.5 rear work fine. Lexus actually use this set up on the newer IS models.

Super clean. You should get the tinted LED rear reflector lights to get that all black look in the read
Good idea but the car is back to stock now
You come a long way, my dawg.

Now this is how you do OEM++ such a tasteful build 🤌
Thank you 🙏🏾 👊🏾
Although I think removing the air filter is a little sketchy

Clean set up my boy

You snapped twin
Getting a 2006 is350 on trade. Needs put together after some body work. It’ll be my first car ever to paint. Should be fun

Dig the F Sport bro, very tastefully done! I got a ‘21 is 350 F Sport that I just totally modded out. They are truly beautiful cars when done right!!
Thank you. 2021 and up look good for sure. I love the wide body look they have and I wish 2nd have the 8 speed auto from the 3rd gen.
Nice build! Looks great 👍 Do you get any drone while driving?
Thanks. I didn’t get any drone with the invidia catback exhaust but just a little bit with the JoeZ catback exhaust sometimes.
what is the apple car play unit? does your is350 have the navigation package? i want to replace mine with something with apple carplay
It’s grom vline, you can buy it from their website. And yes my car has nav package.
Have you considered blacking out the window trim ?
I did
When lowering your car did your axles get destroyed? I have a is250 and sum owners tell me when putting coil overs the axles will go at sum point
I don’t think so and I installed f sport lowering springs which is lexus oem parts. People run coilovers on these cars with no problems. Although they can go bad if you slam the car to the ground without doing any other adjustments.
Sweet build, sadly can’t find a set of front and rear sway bars for the 2014 is350..
Thank you. Lexus discontinued those parts about four years ago
Cool steering wheel do you have the link for it as well as the knob?
@@valoroux935 It’s custom made from elvin_6188 from instagram but I’m selling mine if you’re interested.
Looks great.
Can't find that fsport chassis brace anywhere :( discontinued.

What callipers do you have?
@@tadas8808 The calipers are stock. I just painted them orange.
ISF steering ECU ? What is it improving ?
Better steering feel, specially on sport mode.
How much was everything including the car price? Great build btw
Where are you get all the specs parts from
Lexus website and most of them come with installation instructions in the box. If not, you can look it up online.
What’s your exhaust setup?
JoeZ exhaust
nah bro’s car forgot what model it was, nice sounds
How did you make the headliner dark like in F-Sport?
I didn’t. My car is an IS350 F Sport
@@SlowWhipshould've gotten the prestige. Less features and no sunroof but way faster. 2011 is350 does 0-60 in 4.83 seconds.
Sick build bro, what year is it ?
Thank you. It’s a 2011 model year.
Link for apple carplay?
Check out Grom Vline website
Amazing bruh
經典Beautiful
What about that cat? You removed all the catalytic converter??
No I didn’t. Just Catback exhaust
@@SlowWhip OK
Need a second fun car that wont break the bank gonna save up and get me one in 5 months
You won’t regret it
I believe your IS is a long term keeper, if you absolutely want next generation technology then well understood..
RR Racing supercharger with this and it's a wrap! Haha
Definitely but sometimes you have to change things a little bit, specially after eight and a half years.
@@SlowWhip sell it to me when you want to change hehe
Awesome fucking job man!!

How low do the lowering springs drop your car?
About 1 inch drop all around.
Great mods! Your car looks great! Was car apple android play hard to install? How long did it take?
Thank you 🙏🏾 it wasn’t hard at all, I have an installation video on the channel. It’s very straightforward.
How do you get the TPMs sensors to work with aftermarket wheels ?
