My Lexarse IS200 Sport.............
in june i bought a lexus is 200 sport with 115,000 on the clock for a very reasonable £1600
heres how i bought it:

as soon as i got it home i had the rear badges straight off. the next day i split and painted the headlights and ordered some hids, debadged grille, jap style square plates and 50mm lowering springs.

the day after fitting the springs i found a set of tein control master flex coilovers on ebay with a misspelt title so i was winning them for 99p then another bidder stepped in. i waited till the end of the auction and ended up winning them for £205, a right bargin considering they are £1150 new Cool whilst fitting the coilovers i painted the wheels too.

09-02-2019, 09:36 AM #1alright guys, got myself a new car a few months ago, and ive done quite a few things, anyway
in june i bought a lexus is 200 sport with 115,000 on the clock for a very reasonable £1600
heres how i bought it:
as soon as i got it home i had the rear badges straight off. the next day i split and painted the headlights and ordered some hids, debadged grille, jap style square plates and 50mm lowering springs.

i also added a jdm tow hook

since owning it i have had to replace the clutch, but that wasnt too hard, and also fitted a decat pipe, adds a nice bit of rasp!
i went all out and bought my first set of brand new wheels ever! ended up with some rota boosts!
