Im REALLY bored tonight, so i was looking over picture of my old IS300, which i sold almost a year ago. Here is a little timeline of how i built her up from bone stock....

When i first got it, and put some wheels on it...



then i dropped it, put a few performance mods, a front lip and cf hood.



Then i decided to put 19s on it and paint the lip and get rid of the cf hood.



i went through a few other sets of wheels, and then i decided to write all over the car with a sharpie...





WHY the hell did i do that you ask? Well.. cause it went into the paint/body shop to get completely stripped down and painted inside and out anyhow... hehe.

here was the finished product with new wheels/body kit...






then shortly after that, i put some volk gt-n's on it, and then sold the car i really do miss it, and i kinda wish i had kept it. i spent so much time and money on it and just let it go so easily.

 

wow, the paint job looked awesome in the pics you posted

 

the work was top notch, car was taken apart.. doors, fenders, hood, trunk, head/tail lights.... then painted. thats why i miss it... so much money spent on it.. lol.

ps. the color it was painted was Sterling Grey Metallic, from the BMW M3/ 7-series/X5. in case anyone was wondering.

 

much nicer after the paint job. car didn't look so hot with the carbon fiber hood and the black lip.

 

Car looked great..I know how you feel. I traded in my S4 w/ a ton of work/money put into it but after a while you just get bored w/ a car.

 

DAMN, I love that new color!

 

Sweet! my last car was also an IS300 !







-B-

 

That was a very well done car. Looked badass, now do the same with the Z and you'll forget all about the IS.

 

ahh i remember that beast. i would miss it too.

 

you had me worried with the sharpie....but the car came out excellent after the repaint.

how did you sell the car, paper, dealership, ebay?

 

That is one hot IS300 looks really low with the kit

 

Man, i woulda kept the Lex. You did the car a favor by painting it...looked good man!

Those wheels remind of 06 350z wheels

 

Wow the final product is sweet as hell. I liked the wheels with the phat lip better than the last set you had but looked sweet anyway. Any pics of the interior ??

 

hey i had an is300 as well. black on black. i like the lspotline wheels benny. you shoulda kept it. i regret it sometimes considering the amount of power i could have put in it and the fact thats its not as pricey as tuning the 350. not to mention more room in the is300 and if you ask me that car handles awesome. CRY!!!!

 

DAMN you should have dropped a 2JZ in that b1tch that car has a very rigid chassis, it would have been on helluva car.

 

sweet!!!!

 

wowzer that was one sweet ride, I woulda kewpt it. :P

 

Definately nice paint job, tagging up your car must have been fun
