im going to give my honest opinion. if i saw that on the streets, it would be like a slap in my face. especially when i see the ISF emblems. there is nothing ISF about it. all replica parts, no engine. the hood and side skirts are pieces that make the ISF unique the most and you are missing both which looks really off IMO. you spent all that money but when you could of done something like this and look a lot cleaner and more aggressive without any negative comments ever being made.

No badges. If you don't have an ISF don't advertise it IMHO. You can have all the pieces and parts, but the badges are too much. Is like putting a volk sticker on some varrstoens.

You say your car is not an ISF but you like the look of the ISF.....so why are you putting the badges on the car?
In my honest opinion, it seems like your contradicting yourself by putting the badges on because as someone mentioned, your missing the hood, brakes, etc. It makes it look like your trying to pass your 250 off for a F. I would put the IS250 badge back on

Sorry, but that is crap with the ISF emblems on there. Backwards wheels, wrong taillights, wrong mirrors, wrong interior, wrong motor, wrong brakes, wrong suspension, wrong hood, wrong fenders, your exhaust isn't connected to all four exhaust tips, missing spoiler. Remove those badges, and it would be a tad bit more acceptable.
