I think I'm going to go for the "ricer boy with the unpainted bodykit" look ! Naw, I'm going to get the lip painted as well as getting a custom grill made for the F. I'll post some pics when I get all this done...Darshana S...

Looks awesome on USB! Did you clear bra it? This lip is very tempting, but I'm just afraid that it'll get massively chipped over time.

I have a white ISF and really want a carbon fiber lip - I think the contrast would look good. But I don't want a large lip - I like the size of this one. What options are there for CF lips?

I agree, i think this lip looks great. I also wanted to go with a carbon fiber lip and wanted a partially painted carbon fiber trunk like this... it's hard to tell but it sits up and pokes out higher/further from the stock trunk -

So logistically same height as stock so no scraping the lip unless you park in a non reguled space lol, and it sticks out a little more than oem. Overall is blends great with the lines of the car and gives the car a more agressive but not over the top look.

Not trying to plug but Ventross (google it) makes a CF lip for the IS-F ...I think seibon has one for the IS series but I'm not sure if it would fit the IS-F

The carbon fiber trunk on the BMW in the picture is made my the same company that does the Ventross lip for the IS-F

Can't decide if I like this or the Lexon lip better. Good to know it doesn't make the front much lower. Carbon fiber in this style would look nice as well. I remember someone getting the Ventross CF lip, there should be a thread somewhere.

However I did find the pics of the Ventross CF Truck lid painted like the BMW above. Here's the thread

Yeah, I have seen that one - I just dont like the style of it, it seems "large" to me instead of sleek like the Lexon or AutoCouture ones. As well, in another thread, someone has definite fit problems. It looks like it may not be solidly mounted on the car.
