Default Just installed Tein Flex AND OEM Front Spoiler

This is the second time I have gone with Tein and again I am extremely satisfied.

First ones are on my 05 IS300 (Tein Superstreet)

And the Flex on my MY06. Huge difference when compared to stock as far as looks and performance and feel.

I will post pictures up soon..

Where did you get the Tein Flex and how much? Do you need a camber kit?

ive got the Flex kit too and i love it. U dont need the camber kit.

Correct me if im wrong, but i dont think the upper pillow mounts for camber adjustment can be applied (i couldnt see any room for them) Im guessing ud need to apply a camber adjustment at the ball joint at the bottom. ????

Yeah, in our suspension, the upper mounts aren't used to change camber. That's how you do it on car's with struts (which the S2K doesn't have).

I bought the coilover kit from Status Motorsports in So Cal (They are in Manhattan Beach) They also did the installation. Quick and clean install as well.

I paid about $1400 including labor. Good price?

You read my mind! That was going to be my next question if people have heard squeeks on this setup since mine does the same.... I guess that answers it... Thank you..
