Might want to switch to a BKR7E. One heat range cooler than stock ITR plugs. Plugs could look like that because the car sat for so long without being started. Best to check the plugs after the car has been warmed up and driven a bit.

I don't think its plug related. Its looks like you are way too rich at low rpm. You said you started it--you didn't rev it, you just let it idle? You are already using a relatively hot plug--a step colder wouldn't help the plug fouling situation, but an NGK 6 is kind of warm for a performance motor....
