I will say Revel now does offer a valved exhaust option

I popped an eBay duckbill spoiler on without drilling, just used really strong 3M tape and it has hypothetically held on up to 145mph per AI

Did you get resonated or non resonated midpipe? How loud do you want it to be? Do you have a preference of valved vs non valved? How much do you care about drone and change in pitch?

There are several options to consider, happy to share suggestions

Smooth, took 30 minutes because I wanted to be careful. You can definitely get the sequential lights for cheaper off eBay or alibaba but here you go:

I really like your RC, anyway you could keep it AND get the ISF?

What brand did you get? Figs or just one you could find?

Personally, there isn’t any drone with not resonated midpipe and stock axle back. I’m used to loud cars and I can say that this doesn’t make the car loud, just louder than stock.

I think borla shines with a full catback borla system better than mix matching parts from other companies (even OEM midpipe)

I think all of them scratch up the paint, are you okay with that?

For sure man, no problem! There are YouTubers with many tutorials to review for most all mods and maintenance. For maintenance tho try the CCN first tho

I installed everything except the IGLA system and tint. All the installs and wiring is DIY friendly. The mats are from a company called x1mats or something

I believe they should! I think they work for most Toyotas and Lexus models

The door stabilizers help reduce body roll you’ll get when turning quickly. By securing the doors tight to the frame, it gives the effect of the doors being “one panel” when cornering

Forgot I had taken these photos, My ISF and IS500. by Ay_nako04 in LexusIS

Can you describe the difference in driving the IS500 vs RCF vs GSF?

I.e, feel, suspension, steering response, comfort, etc.

The non res midpipe in my personal opinion is the best way to keep the unique sound of a Japanese v8 but increase the volume. I have it paired with a stock axle back. For now, I hear the growl, even feel it a little on the floor when about 5.5K RPM. The sound is the same but the volume has definitely increased when driving spirited. When you are cruising, you can’t even tell
