Easy to get it serviced. Similar to the IS250 other than a few bits which are different like the brakes. I've purchased lots of stuff to get done at my local XE specialist down the road from me Will be getting done the following - Brake fluid - transmission drain and fill - spark plugs - pcv valve - diff fluid change - engine oil change - caliper slide pins cleaned and regreased - coolant change Pretty much the whole shebang 😁

Thanks. I could go all out and get all the F-Sport accessories but would probably cost me as much as the car so not economically viable. list of all accessories here - https://www.clublexus.com/forums/is-2nd-gen-2006-2013/315599-lexus-announces-f-sport-line-of-accessories-for-2is.html

Some more modifications done. Managed to find some super rare (especially in UK) 19" Forged F-Sport wheels. Also had to get specific wheel nuts to fit them. Be rude not to get OEM ones, managed to find a new set from a Lexus dealer in USA.

Here's some pictures of the keys and mods. Door lock covers finished in dark chrome and a carbon fibre petrol cap.

Haven't looked into it much, but when it boots up it states "Radar Detection System". It does beep and speak Japanese now and then. Thinking to remove it at some point because at night the screen glares on the window right where the wing mirror is making it a bit difficult to see in that mirror.

Someone asked the same question on the JDM Lexus Owners Group on Facebook, I'm sure the answer is on there - https://www.facebook.com/groups/540929091142549/permalink/766034751965314/ -
Car has been collected as of last week Monday. Drives absolutely amazing, condition is very good. Also came with lots of service history and 3 original keys!! Already done a few mods, will post about them soon. Follow me on Instagram if you want to see more updates @jdm_is350_uk

You can get GPS ones as well which I've had before and just as well as ODB2 ones. However you're limited by the satellites so if you go into a tunnel I doubt it'd work.

It does look stunning, colour code is 077 - Starfire Pearl They display kmh only. I've got a HUD plugged into ODB2 port so it provides me with a clear mph reading

Not entirely sure myself. Either a throttle controller or a GPS system.

Car arrived earlier this week safe and sound, here's some snaps of it. Can't wait till it's registered and ready to collect 😁

I've been looking into this kit to dye the seats in my (yet to arrive in the UK IS350 F-Sport) the same dark rose colour that was in my 3is F-Sport. Seen some videos on YouTube and the results were actually really good. For a kit that you can buy sub £100 and do full interior I'm quite impressed. Only thing that's holding me back is I don't have much spare indoor space to do this in.

Well, didn't take me long to get back into a JDM IS350. Selling the 3is to fund a bigger house deposit. This is my one on its way. Seems to be a rare spec as was my 3is. This one has Mark Levinson, Sunroof, ACC (Adaptive Cruise Control) and it's an F-Sport.

There are replacement skins you can get on eBay or Aliexpress

Not difficult to fit, just a bit time consuming. But fairly similar to what I've done before on my old 2is. It comes with a mount to fit your OEM camera into. No name for it I don't think think, many sellers that sell the same unit. It's on the list, just thinking about what one to get. -

10.25" android screen. Possibly the most functional mod I've done and if I were to pick only one to do, it would be this. Android Auto works great. -

TRD style paint matched front lip. It was either these or the Nia front lip but went for these in the end, something different than your typical full front lip. -

Gloss Black rear diffuser, fairly simple to affix onto the rear bumper. This one replaces the original valance so that has to come off. Will get some exhaust tips at some point so it pokes out further and sits flush with the diffuser -

Remark axle back exhaust. Sounds good under load. In two minds whether to add some straight through back boxes to minimise any rasp 20230317_165753.mp4 -
Thought I'd start a thread of the mods I've done and will be doing to the IS250. Too many to post all at once but will upload in due time 1st is possibly my favourite and that's the 4is style rear lights VID_111330223_080015_786.mp4

100% RCF/GSF LCA bushings fit the 3rd Gen IS. I'm getting a pair shortly myself

I'm in the process of wrapping some interior parts, I'll let you know how it goes. Not sure if that specific piece is easily removable, but I know the other silver centre console trims are
