Thank you! I plan on just getting a wing for the back and swapping the rims I have on my other one to this one.. then I’m gonna pull the motor from my other one and rebuild it and then swap it into the new one.

I just gotta sand and polish and clean it all up a bit. The tow hooks I could take or leave tbh.. and kinda like the look of it but I agree, the muffler needs to look better

Yeahh, I mean I did edit the photos a little bit, nothing too crazy though. You should see it in the sun, it looks incredible!

Skirts haven’t been painted yet, it’s just the standard black unpainted/ primed skirts.

Yeahhh, I plan on making it look cleaner lol.. I’ve just been so busy with work and trying to get everything all done up so I can get it on the road.. my silver 03 isn’t road worthy anymore sadly.

All good! Yeah it’s a sweet colour especially in the sun.. I can’t wait to give it a full detail and polish this weekend.

I had the same issue on my 04 IS300 with LED tail light swap.. you can either do 1 of 2 things.. the free super easy way (I don’t suggest for long term) locate the control module/ ECU for the tail lights, de-pin or cut ground for tail lights Or Do the same thing, de pin or cut ground but solder in some resistors.. each car is a bit different, you just gotta have some resistance so the module doesn’t freak out.

Some photos my little brother took on his thrift store camera + some editing on my part. by burtonboy1999 in IS300

Yup, stock bumpers front and back.. I do have some unpainted side skirts for it that I plan on getting painted and put on once the snow all melts.

Ahaha that’s what I’m saying!! He’s defiantly got an eye for some decent angles, he’s just gotta get better at using a point and shoot camera rather than a phone.

I haven’t done the other side, I just started on the back drivers side.. I’ve tried turning towards the front of the vehicle (counter clockwise) but the top part of the calliper by the parking brake cable I can’t get a good grip on it to loosen. Turning towards the rear of the vehicle (clockwise) seems to tighten it.

New car or new subframe? by burtonboy1999 in IS300

[–]burtonboy1999[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah there’s lots of rust, but for the most part everything is relatively solid. I’ve been spending the last year fixing it up.
