Default The only IS-F Artisan Spirits Body Kit off and ready to ship!!!

For sale is the ONLY Artisan Spirits Body Kit for the IS-F in North America as far as I know. If there was another, it would have been posted on the forums already

My kit is the Premium kit which includes the 4 fog-lights and rear window spoiler. The front bumper sustained too much damaged and is beyond repair, but I am willing to ship it to you if you want it. The kit is off and ready to ship ASAP to first buyer!

The whole kit retails for $3750 at Autostyle-usa not including the $1150 in shipping for a total of $4900. I am selling my painted USB kit with the damaged front bumper for $2700 plus shipping. Of course, shipping will be less without the damaged front bumper. I personally think the kit looks better with a front lip on stock bumper, as the Artisan Spirits front does not suit everyone's taste.

What you get:
- Both side skirts (Excellent Condition)
- Rear Bumper (Excellent Condition)
- Rear Window Spoiler (Excellent Condition)
- Damaged beyond repair in my opinion, front bumper (shipping will be less if you decided you don't want it)
- 4 fogligts from the front bumper (1 light lens cover cracked)

When comparing my kit versus buying new, consider the following:
- The side skirts had to be extended by half an inch. I am not sure why the difference between US vs Japanese model. So buying a new kit, you will probably pay more due to work needed on the side skirts.
- Dropping $1150 like I did just for shipping was very painful.
- Over the years, not everyone liked the Artisan Spirits front, but a whole lot of people liked the sides and rear bumper. So you can either do a Wald Front or just a lip, as it would go nicely with the rest of the kit.
- This kit is especially valuable for a USB IS-F owner, since you would not have to paint it. The body work was done at highly reputable A&L Auto Body in Palatine, IL. This is the shop that works on exotics in the Chicago area and are very well-known in the tuner community for great work.

If you are ever willing to part out the kit, I'm in Chicago and interested in the rear bumper. Also, are you selling your JDM visors?

Hey bud, I am sorry, but I am only interested in selling the whole kit (sides and bumper). Taking the visors out is a pain and so I rather just leave it there for the new owner.
