Very nice, Ill! I got to see this car in person at the Fall 07 UBAB and it looked just as nice there. I can't remember if it had that lip or that exhaust, but it was still nice none-the-less.

I love it but not the seat or exhaust but it's your car not mine. I have an Is300 also and you did a great job on yours. Props to you.

What's the point of the exhaust sticking out so far like that?

There isn't really one. It does help keep soot off the bumper, and the long tip helps with the sound.... Most of all, its obnoxious and offensive, and I like it.

It's a custom exhaust with an ASpec muffler... I'll get a video clip once I get the headers on.

Do you sleep in you car or why is teh seat angled that much?!

Its not angled a lot, its just the wide angle lense, and the fact that it sits 3 inches lower than stock makes it look angled.

what's under the hood?

Absolutely nothing. I've got a y-pipe (basically a test-pipe) and straight 2.5 inch piping from there to the muffler. I'll be getting headers and running a de-resonated stock intake setup in the next few weeks, and hopefully cams and tuning will come sometime after that.
