Default Updated Lip Kits for the 09-up Models????

I just got an 09 SFP, and I really want the ings kit.
Anybody know if some of these companies (ings, vertex, etc) are making updated kits for the different bumpers?

Yeah, I know the Vertex kit is in the works. Not sure of the release date though.

The Lexon 09' front lip looks great. Look into that one if your as impatient as I am

I think you should start emailing companies. Thats the best way to let them know there is interest in their product. Its always worth the shot. Vertex and wald are the only companies making 09 kits, im not sure any of them are on sale yet.

09 Vertex mold was just completed, from I heard the look is the same, just the fitment of the front lip is different. There is no ETA for it though, hopefully soon.

I e-mailed INGS asking if there will be a 09 kit for 2IS but they never e-mailed me back and not sure if they read it. I guess that means the answer is no, but it'd be great if they did make one. From what people are saying on here, there is supposed to be a Vertex one so at least people with the 09 IS can look forward to that.

I emailed INGS and they reponded to me:

Thanks, starfire. Good to know what they said. So I guess it's a "maybe" answer then?

Maybe they just missed mine or I might have filled out the form on the Japanese site instead of the USA one.

I assume so since they said a couple months but the didn't give me an exact date. A little OT do you think the 09 sides and rear would fit our zenki lol vertex called the 09 kouki's so I guess the 06-08 are zenki
