I actually got rid of the hood because it doesn't line-up with the fenders and bumper, but I absolutely agree with you that it looks better.
The coilovers are made by a company called Autogear racing based in LA
My coiloever is a 16 way fully adjustable coilover with dampening,
but here's the truly custom part
there's an air tank on top of the coilover with 50 plates inside, so when I have the compressor on I can raise my car 2.5 inches,
my car used to be SLAMMED, but not anymore

+1. I was just about to say wrong section. Anyways, do you still have the IS250 hood? If it fits, I think that would look better. Never liked that bulge in front. Makes the car look like a whale. Just my 2 cents since you're not trying to pass it off as an F.
Car looks great btw. Are you going to share any info on your custom coilovers?

First and foremost, Welcome! 
Wow, S4Play (CL member) and I were just discussing last night the amount of work someone has to do to fit IS-F front bumpers on an ISX50.
And low and behold, you post evidence that it can be done with only slight modifications. NICE JOB!!

Hahaha yes you could say that
But it still has a fully adjustable coilover for if I ever want to gut and track it !
Oh yeah, no "bags" either, those wear out after a year, the 50 plates last a lifetime!
Thank you very much I appreciate that!
I used all OEM parts for the conversion, like I said earlier to my dissapoinment is that you can't use your ISX50 hood with the kit

No wonder you're sitting so low! Thanks for the info.
I love my Work VS-XX wheels. They are truly a classic beauty. But since it seems like you're ballin outta control, maybe you should get the Limited Edition Step Lip Work-VS-XX wheels. If I could sell my 2 sets of wheels, I'd be all over them.

I'm green with envy right now.
those wheels only look PERFECT on a select few cars, and I believe the 2IS falls under the PERFECT category
BUT
We'll see what happens with my car, I might be selling it in the near future, or holding onto it and making it a daily-driveable track car, (yes, I will gut it)
but in the meantime, I enjoy the cruise
