Ok I have both and have the whole front end already, meaning hood, fenders, front bumper, impact bar and absorber with fog lights and grille, fender liners, brake vents, bottom cover and side skirts with all clips and all. I tried lining it up but the front was off by 3 inches. I found out that I needed radiator support and side supports. But need to know what it needed completely. I have an ISF with the Gredy kit. Way too much gas just to drive it around. I wanted something with better gas mileage so I'm converting my is350 since the nose was hit anyway. It's not worth it to drive the ISF as a daily driver. And the parts are in my favorite color, super sonic blue..

And by the way I've heard that gas might hit the 7 dollar a gallon mark so I think the better gas mileage ISF is a win..

I love the way people on this Forum hate on the Mods they cant get their hands on. If you own an ISF my props to you. I believe people do mods because it makes the car look different then the way they come from factory. i dont understand why people in here get mad. Honda Civic owners get JDM Parts like if you have a Civic Coupe you always go for the SI look. If you own a BMW 530 you always get parts that come from an M5 Bumpers, etc. same as for the M3 and in Benz you get AMG stuff bumpers, wheels, Audi owners always want S4 or etc. Everyone says get an ISF some of us cant afford one yet, but that doesnt mean we cant swap a bumper or etc like if you buy a salvaged ISF and own a 250/350 why not swap the parts that are good. I have ISF full interior and ISF Rear Bumper that doesnt mean im a ricer it just means that alot of people would love to get their hands on those things but are not lucky and the main goal is that i love it and if i like what I spend my money on than i dont care what anybody thinks. I believe this forum is so that we can share ideas and see what other members are doing not to sit here and a critic. My opinion if you have nothing positive to say when you see something you dont like on this forum than just click out the thread.

I love how people always asume that just because we don't like "thier taste" it's an automatic "you must not be able to afford it".

If you read his post he actually was not looking for anyones opinion he was actually looking for help or information but I guess people didnt read that part and went straight to their opinion on what should be put on the car and what not.

Exactly my point. you can clearly see why they don't even drive a lexus because they spend too much time worrying about what other people are doing with their hard earned money....

lol wow so all this time I've been paying for a car that's been a figment of my imagination. I'll make sure to call my credit union and tell them I will no longer be giving them free money.

It is entirely possible and quite easy if you have all the parts. its a direct swap
