most places won't install these due to the complex nature of the install. hardest step is baking the headlights to separate them. if you mess up this step the headlight may suffer some damage and the headlights are not cheap so for a shop to make 100-200 and risk damaging 1300 headlights is simply not worth it. i had this problem when i was trying to get mine installed. i ended up doing it myself.

And if they are the adaptive steering headlights, $4500 the pair... fun times :)

Hey Mike,

Thanks for your comments. I definitely have plans to add some kind of modifcations although I am a bit hesitant due to the fact that many people say that it will void my factory warranty. I have been trying to do some research online but suffice to say that there isn't really a clear indication. Do you happen to know if adding fuel intake/air filters will void warranty? I know someone who has a K&N air intake system on their 250 and it sounds amazing. Also as far as angel eyes vs HID, I like what p0c1's mods (on page 22) has done to his lights. Bit I want to make sure they match my current xenon lights. p0c1 do you know what the standard xenon lights are for the 2010 is250 fsports? I think i saw somewhere that they were 16k but the 4200 lights you have look amazing. Also Mike is the back of your car lowered a bit? Many people say that lowering the back even by an inch makes a bit difference but I'm worried that this may affect driving in car parks etc? Love what you've done with the car looks really good!

Cheers,

Mike

I wouldn't worry about warranty that much, its essentially a pipe and a filter, if you install it properly it shouldnt cause any problems. If you're really worried about warranty and want piece of mind, just go with the F-Sport - F-Sport parts wont void your warranty.

For lights, if you want to match your stock HID go 4300k.

Lowering your car an inch in the back definitely won't cause any problems - you'll still clear most if not all inclines easily.

Hope this has been helpful!

Hey Terry,

Thanks or your advice. Are you sure the stock HID is 4300k? Just a reminder I have the 2010 Is250 f-sport. I have a feeling that the stock bi-xenon lights are 5000k. I've tried looking online but its useless. Not even on the website.

though the HID on my ISF looks bluer than my IS350

Thats 5% on all of the windows and then i actually got the front widscreen tinted 35% to block out all the light coming in so u cannot see in from any angle.. Makes it alot cooler inside aswel but hard to see out the back at night..

Haha. If you clear a defect and re do it again in NSW your car gets impounded.

Haha nah in SA they would rather the money they keep getting from you each time you re offend.. But yeh to my knowledge you clear the defect pay the amount and thats it if u put it back on u run the risk of getting caught again and you pay for it again..
