And the 2nd gen TL is way better looking than the IS350 despite the IS having half a decade newer styling...

the shift knob is a little big. If you want to make it shorter, try taking a hacksaw to the part it screws on to. You can cut a little under half the thread off and still screw a knob on securly. Looks much more clean

I think I like the stock Type-S knob better too. You need to get one of the aux in adapters that connect to the changer in on the head unit so you can ditch that cassette adapter! The IS looks sweet..

I am going to have to respectfully disagree, it is too compact and not long or elegant enough. This is a TL forum so, I wouldn't expect too much support. I'm surprised you think the IS looks so good. Your TL is easily my first or second favorite on the board.

Got my type-S knob back on today...looks a lot better, dunt even kno why i got that crap lol
the IS350 is my dad's. he is really into cars and had 4different cars during the 12years in Texas so far. he started off with a Mustang Cobra, and then the 2nd gen TL , Infiniti G35, and now the IS350. He is thinkin bout gettin the IS-F(IS-500? forgot which name they stuck with) whenever it comes out. the new GT-R was a bit too pricy lol
